Hal Vatcher decided to live a 36 year old dream and spend a winter as a "ski bum" in a ski area. 2011 is the year and Breckenridge, CO is the chosen location. A townhouse was rented from January 5t to April 5th. The house was located 1/2 mile from the main street of Breckenridge, and 1 block from the ski lift.
The first part of my trip was to spend the Christmas holiday with my family in Phoenix, AZ. The SUV was packed, however, so I could go from Phoenix to Colorado without returning to Los Angeles.
