We apparently have the worst luck when it comes to the weather down in Girdwood. It seems like each time we plan a Ski Weekend, it ends up raining! But we have fun, regardless of the weather – so I guess it’s okay.
This time we stayed at The Ski Inn, a place I’ve always been interested in. Their website calls it a Boutique Inn: it’s very quaint, almost like a hostel in that the people staying there are all very friendly. The owner was there working on little fix-ups, so we got to chat with him for a while. Their common area has the coffee/tea corner with a good-sized fridge full of breakfast items. There’s lots of comfortable seating with an electronic fireplace for ambiance.
Our room was upstairs and offered a view of the ski slopes, so theoretically I could have “watched” him ski that day. It was a very small room, but we made it work. We have refined our packing to where we have pretty much everything we need: one tote with all my crafting stuff, one tote with everything we might need to watch movies (including a DVD player, a monitor, speakers, and pretty much every kind of cable there is), and one tote with all his ski gear.
Since we had no kitchen this time, we went out for dinner each night. My favorite place is, of course, Chair Five where he got his pizza and I had a Caesar Salad.
