Skiing - Lake Tahoe

March 23-30, 2003

Large house rented near Alpine Meadows Resort at Lake Tahoe.  Steve Whipple is coordinating.

Sailing in the Greek Islands September 2003 We'll rent one or more 60+ sailboats and sail the Greek Islands!  We are targeting the Cyclades group of islands, which includes Mykonos, Ios, Santorini, Paros, and Naxos.  We will use GPSC charters, one of the largest and best known charter companies, and hire a skipper.  Cost will be around $1500 per person and the duration will be about 10 days to give us at least 7 full days of sailing. This will be an awesome trip.  Email me for more details.
