Bucket list
My wife and I completed this last couple of weeks.
30+ years ago when we spent time in Yosemite NP. One evening I said I wanted to come back during the Christmas season when the Ahwahnee Hotel was decorated for the holidays. One of the main things in the bucket list plan was going out and making snow angels and then coming in for a warming adult drink.
Unfortunately we didn't have a new fresh show but there was enough to throw one more thing into the bucket.
I will save you from the video of an old, heavily dressed, chubby guy getting to the ground in snow and back up again.Synology 1019D+ - SGC Sonictransporter I9 w Roon/HQ Player- UltraRendu- PBD Stream IF to Playback Designs MPS5 via fiber optic - ARC 40th Anniversary Pre - ARC 610 T's - Martin Logan CLX's - 4 Martin Logan Depth i Subs - Shunyata Hydra, DIY PCOCC interconnects, speaker cables and power cords with Furutech terminations.

Re: Bucket list
After we left Yosemite, we went to South Lake Tahoe. Not because it was on the list but we had never been there.
Once settled in our room we discovered a major front was coming through with 2'-4' of snow. The general consensus was that it would be done showing and the roads would be clear enough to drive to Reno by Monday afternoon when we needed to arrive.
This is a pic of our rental mid afternoon the day the snow started.Synology 1019D+ - SGC Sonictransporter I9 w Roon/HQ Player- UltraRendu- PBD Stream IF to Playback Designs MPS5 via fiber optic - ARC 40th Anniversary Pre - ARC 610 T's - Martin Logan CLX's - 4 Martin Logan Depth i Subs - Shunyata Hydra, DIY PCOCC interconnects, speaker cables and power cords with Furutech terminations.

Re: Bucket list
Here is a picture Sunday morning after the hotel lost power and we decided to try to get to Reno. 18" of show and still 24 more hours of snow to come. The rental had the worst 4 wheel drive if at all. It was a white knuckle driving experience to say the least.
The worst section of the drive was from SLT to Carson City. It was 24 miles and took 3 hours.
Looking forward to being back in Florida Tuesday night.Synology 1019D+ - SGC Sonictransporter I9 w Roon/HQ Player- UltraRendu- PBD Stream IF to Playback Designs MPS5 via fiber optic - ARC 40th Anniversary Pre - ARC 610 T's - Martin Logan CLX's - 4 Martin Logan Depth i Subs - Shunyata Hydra, DIY PCOCC interconnects, speaker cables and power cords with Furutech terminations.

Because I'm a client of Topper Jewelers, they gave me a 20% discount off the retail price, so paid USD $440 for this watch. As for TAG Heuers, I lost interest in the brand when they started...
