Happy Belated Valentine's Day

I hope you all had a wonderful pseudo holiday, and at the very least ate some good food and drank some wine. Which of course is exactly what we did.

We are still here in Breckenridge enjoying the mountains (thanks to one of those deals where we can have a cheap hotel stay as long as we agree to tour some condos they are trying to get buyers for). And so we spent Valentine's Day skiing at Copper. Being a weekday, there were no crowds at all and we got countless runs in. Plus the weather was warm and sunny. Most of the day we spent trying to do some jumps at the terrain park. But I have to say that my ability to catch air was mediocre at best.

The we headed back to get showered up and go out to dinner. We went to a place called the Hearthstone Restaurant which was phenomenal. We got there about 5 so we could take advantage of the happy hour in the lounge (which had a beautiful view and $5 plates of food), and then stayed there in the lounge for the rest of the meal. It was amazing! One of my sides was a black truffle creamed spinach, which was undoubtably the best spinach I ever had. I would highly recommend this place if you are ever in Breckinridge and looking to spend a little extra on a stellar meal.

Mediocre Tip: Happy hours are fabulous, and they should be taken advantage of. The drinks are sad when you don't.
