It's mid-September and the change in the seasons from summer to fall just means winter is that much closer! This episode’s theme – an Outdoor State of Mind – will feature the airing of grievances, creative ways to embrace the outdoors into the cold months, a resurrected ski area in Maine, and a feature segment about the greatest challenge of our lifetime, protecting our winters. Season pass sales, winter operation updates and good ski news will all be part of this episode – recorded outside on my deck! The chirping birds, barking dogs and garbage truck are nice accent pieces to the episode theme. And for the love of God, “Is the Pano Open?”
