Ski and Fun at Pico Mountain, Killington, VT

My family and I made our way out to Killington, VT recently to check out  Pico Mountain. I went on behalf of Trekeroo, a wonderful site where travelers with kids have access to tips, trips, and sights as experienced by other families like themselves, and where I am a proud contributor.

We had a wonderful time and I invite you to check out my reviews at Trekeroo for all the different experiences we had there. My little ones tried skiing for the first time, as did I, as we loved it (I didn’t even fall once!), my 12 year old better mastered his snowboarding skills, and my husband conquered the summit.

 

Truly and unforgettable time, so I hope you check out What’s Kid Friendly at Pico Mountain Ski Resort featured on Trekaroo!

I have pics that you can view there as well, though most were taken with my iPhone as skiing with my expensive camera in tow was not an option, but I hope that I captured in some of the shots the fun we had and the beautiful time spent there.

Thank you to Pico Mountain Ski Resort for their hospitality and service.

    Nice trip! Thanks for sharing! I always like seeing pictures from ski trips since skiing is my passion. We like to take our two little boys (2 1/2 & 4 years old) also skiing but we stay a lot closer to NYC than you guys did. We ski on little mountains with our little boys since the little mountains are big enough for them. Bu as far as I am concerned, I would not even call these local anthills mountains…

Around this time last year we secluded ourselves i Around this time last year we secluded ourselves in our half renovated home in the Finger Lakes unsure of what the future held for so many of us and our loved ones. In a way, we felt isolated from the world...but also from our friends and family.

So much has happened in a year. So much to reflect on. So much gratitude.

Not sure how to process a year of this so I’m just holding on to all the positives - the closeness we’ve nurtured as a family. The incredible rediscovery of friendships, and the fierce protection of the same. The reminder of what matters most and the vulnerability of life.

The incredible fortune of this beautiful place of serenity and solace. Though I am eager to share it with friends again soon.

Today we found out that Centerway Square, Corning, Today we found out that Centerway Square, Corning, NY’s public square was voted Best Public Square in the U.S. 2021 by USA Today @10best.

It felt appropriate to go and enjoy it on this beautiful evening. The added treat however, was in the amazing food and wine experience at the newly opened @thequincyexchange bistro only steps away!

The ambiance, the food, the service, the wine. 😚👌🏾

There’s so much awesome happening in the region, and I love how Corning is catering to both the local and visitor experience.

Make sure you stop here when visiting our beloved NY wine country.

Our very first Valentine’s Day together was our Our very first Valentine’s Day together was our second date after we met. Up until that moment I never celebrated the holiday, even if I was seeing someone, except with girlfriends which was the only way I tolerated any of it. But this time, it felt like a thing to do because I had just met this guy that I really, REALLY liked and he had planned a night out. 

I was a single mom, and my oldest (then 4) was supposed to be with his dad - who called last minute to say he would be late. So, I had to bring him to the restaurant with me, on our second date (!) because reservations were tight (we were also going to watch a concert after).

As we were ordering dinner (to go for my kid), my ex shows up and instead of taking my son and leaving, he decides to pull up a chair and sit and embarrass me in such awful ways. After dinner, as we paid the bill, he got up, took our son, and said goodbye, pretty convinced he had done the damage he came to do.

I quietly got in the cab with @travisjcain and just broke out into ugly crying. Convinced this really nice guy, that I really liked, had seen enough and would never call again.

But he did. And he never left my side. And though on that night we both agreed that Valentine’s Day is the worst, what we had was not and it has only gotten better since. So, though we don’t celebrate, that is the V Day love story that always makes me love him more. Happy Valentine’s Day, you crazy kids. Live life never doubting you are deserving of love and kindness, however it may come your way.
