Rough winter in Vail if you like sunny days, but the last day was epic!

Epic snowfall in Vail ’08

Always good to have friends in town… Pete Murray has better timing than most

Kilmur always enjoys snowfall in Vail

Great friends, sunny skies & great powder in Vail

What a weekend in Vail! Great friends, great weather and world class conditions.

First Snow in Vail, CO

Mostly a rainy day here in the Valley with a little snow mixed in. I’m hearing the pass is white- out conditions with a 7 car pile up.

Weekend Anglers…..?

Well…certainly Denton & Logan have skills. Nice day on the Eagle River, just east of its entry into the Colorado River (Eagle & Avon, CO.)

……just before the Eagle meets the Colorado/ Logan Mulcrone (of the Chicago Mulcrones)

Denton Crofts, Idaho- raised, master of fly placement………the result

Entourage (mine)

Friendship is a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, and affection. Friends will welcome each other’s company and exhibit loyalty towards each other, often to the point of altruism. Their tastes will usually be similar and may converge, and they will share enjoyable activities. They will also engage in mutually helping behavior, such as exchange of advice and the sharing of hardship. A friend is someone who may often demonstrate reciprocating and reflective behaviors.

Just came across this picture. Some may resemble Sopranos and yes these guys are from NJ, but they’re some of the most solid people and my great friends/ my entourage. They’re about as influential a part of my life to this day as anything or anyone ever could be. Hysterically funny, core street- smarts, loyal, fair and kind to everyone………. but don’t bother bringing any delusions or an attitude. Team players only in this company!

Vail Village Commercial Office Space (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

Miss & I have (no longer available) up to 1445 Sq. Ft. for lease, sandwiched between the new Four Seasons Hotel & Vail Plaza Club & Hotel. The space is nicely finished, offers parking and wrap around views including to the Mountain. Interested give us a call at 970 471 3079.

Amazing what’s going in Vail and in Lionshead. Development in the two base villages including a Four Seasons, Vail Plaza Club & Hotel, a new Ritz Carlton, the doubling in size of the Sonnenalp, a very interesting Ginn project in Minturn and the giant Arabelle project seem to assure it’s status as a world class destination resort for years to come.

Leading Residential Designer

Biased maybe, but when Melissa designs a home or a commercial space it’s a near perfect bet that it is going to be unique & special.

Getting the cover of ‘Leading Residential Designers’ ain’t bad either -guess I’m not the only one who thinks so

Proud,
