Happy New Year everybody! I hope you all had wonderful
holidays full of love, health and happiness! I’ll be looking forward to fitting
into all the pairs of pants I put away while feasting throughout the holidays,
preferably sometime in 2014. J This
is a good time to plan your getaways and vacations with us! Business is busy
since we’ve had a couple of GREAT ski days here in the Berkshires. We always
have discounted Jiminy tickets available here at the office. Be sure to ask about
them at check-in because they sold out VERY quickly last weekend. According to
the forecast, it should be snowing everyday this week which should make for a
quality ski and snowboard week. You can also check Jiminy’s snow report at http://www.jiminypeak.com/snow-report to be
sure! And last but not least, events going on this week in the Berkshires and
surrounding areas are as follows:
