So I had this plan to take son and grandson skiing at Winter park in March. The cost was coming in around $2,800.

So I made a plan to cut some expenses and pick up extra money to fund it.

I also made a plan to continue to lose weight, quit smoking and do breathing

exercises so this 60 year old could survive the altitude.

Then my daughter, who lives in Grand Rapids MI says come up and ski Cannnonsburg instead.

So I looked it up -- https://cannonsburg.com/ 

Wow! Lift tickets and ski rentals 1/2 the price of Colorado. Low altitude, kid friendly for my first time skiers!

So now the price will be around $800. Because no lodging cost. Little eating out costs. Low ski costs. I'll still save the $2,800 for a future CO trip.
