Oh What A Beautiful Morning . . .

When I headed out with Griff the Wonder Pup this morning an absolutely beautiful view greeted us at the end of our driveway here on the shoulder of Moose Mountain eight miles from campus.

The ski areas you can see in the pic are Killington and Pico. On occasional mornings we can pick out the trails on Okemo Mountain, and this was one of those mornings. Better yet, today was the rare day when not only could we see Okemo, but Stratton Mountain was clearly visible as well. Add in the defunct Mount Ascutney and there were five ski areas visible with the naked eye today.

Old timers say there was a time when you could actually see the Adirondacks on a good day.
If you missed it last night, be sure to check BGA Premium for a look at yesterday's Big Green football practice. The team banquet is being held today and while I will miss it with a previous commitment, I'll try to get the award winners for later today or tomorrow.

The third practice of the spring is set for tomorrow with additional sessions on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday bringing spring football practice to the halfway point.
