Wednesday the 26th we drove to Maine to stay with Steve and Laura at their condo at Sugarloaf until after the new year.  We had a safe trip and made it in less than 10 hours in spite of the traffic.  The snow is beautiful and it has not been too cold.  They skied while we hiked and rested and then the ladies exercised in the afternoon.  They took us out to dinner last night for our anniversary.  We snowshoed and geocached  this morning while they skied and are going to a comedy show at the base lodge this evening.  I will probably ski while we are here but the crowds are growing.
