Recently in a cabin with my daughter-in law's sister. She says "I'm going to go skiing". I said the lines today will be long and you will have to wait forever for rental boots, poles, and skis. "no problememo" she says and picks up her I phone. W/i a minute she not only had reserved her poles, skis, and boots but she also had obtained her lift pass which she printed out.
I should say she works in the Silicon Valley for a high tech company-is there any other kind?
That kind of stuff just depresses me because I know if I tried it I might get the equipment but likely at a different ski area than where I wanted to go.
