This first season, I just want to get this base, core group established first, just to see if it was going to take off. It has, more than I ever anticipated.

Basically, we all love Colorado. It's all about camaraderie and telling a lie about how big a cliff you jumped off of.

I think there is a real need in the state of Colorado for a ski club that, actually, everybody involved skis. I don't mean to (call out) any other clubs, but I've been to some other club meetings where a lot of people at the meeting didn't even ski or ride. Although we have that social aspect, we are about the skiing and riding.

The social part has actually taken off really well. We try do happy hours and that type of thing in addition to all the skiing and riding we do.

The fishes are also employed for the same purpose on any yard, which happens to be sprung or fractured. Thus their form, application, and utility are exactly like those of the splinters applied to a broken limb in surgery.

I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
