Thursday was a pretty big day.
- Skiing with the Hall of Famers
- Cocktail Hour
- 2016 International Skiing History Association(ISHA) dinner and awards
- Bogner Rooftop Freestyle Party
First Phil and I started the day skiing with a large group of people from the who's who list of skiers from the 70's and 80's such as
Bob Salerno, to
John Eaves, to Suzie Chaffee, to....Well, you get it. It was the kind of day that you knew it was time to stop skiing but you wanted to get one more run
During cocktail hour at the Limelight we bumped into a local friend who asked what we were in town for, so we explained and he said he had no idea. Meanwhile we're sitting in an area of the lounge with a group of amazing skiers from the 60's 70's and 80's, some of whom were the first to do [insert spectacular move here]
I realized that there were people walking by this table, not realizing that we wouldn't be doing what we're doing today if it weren't for the things these people did.
People within 10 feet of amazingness and not knowing it.
@SBrown and Brown arrived and were ready help us cover the events of the evening.
Phil and I went to the 2016 ISHA awards dinner where we were surrounded by legends in the industry, including but not exclusive to Klaus Obermeyer, Herman Gollner,
Sven Coomer, (again, the list goes on and on)
