Last month I had hopes and dreams of getting up to Tahoe for some early skiing. And although the resorts did have a decent layer of snow on the ground it just wasn’t enough to open the main lifts and runs that I usually frequent. But Mother Nature has once again made several visits and created that winter wonderland that we all look forward to on the slopes. Since the Sun Peaks trip is coming up I definitely need to get up to Tahoe and start my season before the trip.
Happy Chinese New Year!
Welcome to the Chinese Year of the Snake! Yes, the Chinese New Year starts January 29h and ends February 2nd. People born on Snake Years (1929, 1941, 1953, etc,) are believed to be wise, calm, and graceful, with great introspective traits. Are you one of them? Do you know anyone with those traits?
Coming up on Saturday, 18 January, is an NSC Potluck at Miraido Village in San Jose, Japantown. See the newsletter for details.
