ACE_girlfriends_trip

Recently I guided a Big Water Canyon Overnight on the New River and there were two separate bachelor parties enjoying the trip. It got me thinking; where are the girls vacationing this summer?

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the guys’ antics, but I think I could relate to a girl gang a little better. And if “Sex and the City” has taught us anything, we need to celebrate our girlfriends more than ever!


I'm very fortunate to be allowed to live at ACE year round, and winter is one of my favorite times of the year.  Crowds of hungry birds, flying squirrels and other critters replace the many guests. When the snow flies, it is unbelievably quiet here.

If we get too much snow, the ACE crew clears the roads on property so everyone can get in and out, and the highway department does a fantastic job of keeping the road into ACE cleared.

And I, too, have my own hot tub — sitting in your own, private hot tub while the wind and snow are blowing all around you is a magical experience.

I am getting ready to turn a certain landmark age. It starts with "F" and rhymes with shorty. As I think back into the shadows of time, things used to be so much easier.

From my desk, I can see the lake on the ACE property. I watch kids and adults alike play on all of the toys on the lake. It reminds me of when I was a kid, going to the pool and swimming so hard all day that I would collapse on the drive home. Overall, it was such a simpler time. Technology was not a curse. It was a luxury. Don't you remember the joy of being a kid in the summer? It seemed like anything was possible.
