Today I’m enjoying one of the many perks of journalism. TQ editor Kyle Magin had given me two tickets to Diamond Peak last time I was in the office and since my brother is in town for the week, I thought we would come up for a bluebird day. I also had an interview with Diamond Peak manager Brad Wilson. Two birds, one stone. Now my brother is watching the girls and I am enjoying the snow. Working from a chairlift is about as good as it gets!
