Noticed we didn't have one of these, guessing that people post in the "happy" thread?

Anyways, I'm Alberta bound this coming Sunday with 3 buddies. Flying out to Calgary & then driving up to Panorama for 5 nights & 4 days of skiing, hoping we get some snow while we're there, forecast is looking good temps wise, but not much snow in the forecast. They had an outstanding December with record like snow, but January has been pretty dry as has much of February so far. Even if we can get 10cms one night, that'll be enough for us to find some fresh tracks for a few days. We're spending Friday night in Calgary before flying back on Saturday, so we'll look to hit the town Friday night.
Current rides - 2025 Mazda CX-70 GT-P, 2006 Porsche 911

Sounds like a good trip...4 full days of skiing is a lot, I'd be burnt out, lol.
We're driving back up to Mississauga for a few days over March break, see the family and take care of a few things that are easier done in-person. We'll do a week or two in our usual spot in Pensacola Beach in June/July, and I recently booked a 4-day weekend for Mrs.Firm and a girlfriend of hers in NYC in May....She's never been and wants to see it, I've been plenty for work and have no desire to spend more time there, and I had enough Delta & Marriot points to cover the flight & hotel. She doesn't get away from the kids much, so she's pretty excited to go.

I don't think the skiing would burn you out.

It's the "festivities" after the day of skiing that would be problematic! LOL 😆

My tolerance for those activities is better than for skiing  ;D

Heading to Mexico in less than two weeks with some friends. Staying in the same Airbnb we stayed in two years ago with the exact same group. This will be our fifth time going to that area. Not much is planned aside from an afternoon on a sailboat. Have done that a couple times in the past and it's a lot of fun.

Gonna have to use up a lot of vacation time this year. Also planning to go to Italy in July (we have tickets to see My Chemical Romance in Florence) and then heading to Buenos Aires and Uruguay with my dad and brothers for two weeks in November.

Already planning some 2027 stuff too, looking like I may go to Munich for Oktoberfest with some friends who are then going golfing in Ireland. I'll be skipping the golf but I might join them in Dublin for a couple nights and then meet up with my dad in Berlin and then go to Poland so I can see where his family is from (his parents grew up outside of Gdansk).
