Mount Snow, Vermont
Our Paul Purpura is out of the state for the next few days in school up in Vermont. Most of you know that Paul is also a ski instructor at Wintergreen Resort during the winter months. He and 6 other folks from the Wintergreen Snow Sports School are there. “Pro-Jam is a week long seminar where ski instructors from all over the Eastern United States come to improve their skiing and also become better instructors. It’s a great opportunity to make new friends and see old ones as well,” Paul said in an e-mail to us Monday evening.

Looks like those guys will get lots more snow from a system that will be affecting us later in the week.

Stay warm up there Paul!
