I took Q and RJ up to Liberty this past weekend. I dropped Q off at the ski school and took RJ tubing. This is for the rest of you parents out there interested in taking your kid tubing: Pebble Ridge is the little kid area (2 to 4 years old). It's pretty much like tubing in the back yard. You have to walk up a hill (in my case, pull RJ up the hill) and let them go. You can't tube with them. They've got snow walls to keep the kids on track and big fluffy bumpers at the bottom (although the attendant generally stops the kids before they get to the bumpers). The main tubing area looks like fun. There's a magic carpet lift (think airport moving walkway) and from what I saw, you can pick up a lot of speed. I figured it would have scared the bejezuses out of RJ, so we stayed at the kiddie area. The tubing area is around the corner from the ski area. When we went to pick up Q, she had taken the Dipsy Quad up the mountain and she was carving wedge turns across the mountain. Her first ski session of the season and she looked awesome. I was very proud of her.
