Massanutten Vacation - Day 1

The family headed down for their first-ever trip to Massanutten, VA on Monday of Spring Break.  The boys brought their friend Pickle with them too.

The first day brought a lovely and rare March 25 snowfall, which fortunately did not dampen anyone's spirits or affect the 2-hour drive to the resort.

Sam was pleased with the spacious 3-room suite that greeted everyone upon check-in.  After some relaxation time, they headed over to the recreation center.

The rec center was a mass of humanity, so they played a few games of pool and a few minutes of basketball.    The ping pong was not going to happen.

On the way home, they stopped at the "scenic overlook".  Dad told the boys to see what was at the top of the steps.  He did not realize that at the top of the steps was a snowy trail heading off into the snowy woods. The boys took off down the path, never to be heard from again. and it took Dad quite a while to track them down and get them corraled back down the slick steps and into the car.  After a brief lecture on death by frostbite, they headed back to the condo.

Dinner was pork chops, corn, rice, and rolls, followed by some Klondike bars and popcorn.  After some time in the jacuzzi and a game of Apples To Apples, it was time for bed.
