November
This month I want to simply say thanks. I am thankful for so many things that I can hardly list them all here. But I would like to express how thankful I am for all my friends and family that support me as clients. I enjoy being a part of your vacations and cherish these relationships. Thank you all for coming along on this journey with me!
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Ebola
While the Ebola outbreak is a serious problem, the threat to the general population is overblown and many people are panicking for little reason. Ebola can only be spread through contact with blood or other bodily fluids. It is not spread through the air or water. The actual chance of a non-medical worker in the US catching the virus is extremely low. If you are worried at all about traveling and contracting Ebola, do your own research and get the facts.

Hit the Slopes
Have you booked your ski vacation yet? Here are the top U.S. destinations:
Vail
Aspen/Snowmass
Telluride
Lake Tahoe
Park City/Deer Valley
Jackson Hole
Here are a couple tips on how to get the best value:
1. Consider flexible dates- off peak times can save you
2. Select a resort near a major airport- smaller airports have limited space and flights which increases the airfare
3. Book early!
4. Buy lift tickets with your lodging- this can save you up to 40%!
5. Book a condo with a kitchen and buy groceries instead of eating out every meal.
