Living the Suite Life

Salutations from sunny (and rainy and calm and windy) Park City! I've just spent a glorious and indulgent week with the Close To My Heart Advisory Board at the awesome Grand Summit Resort at the Canyons.


In case you're wondering what the heck an Advisory Board retreat is, in a nutshell, it's like a weeklong focus group with some of your best girlfriends: days of chocolate and chatting, evenings of gourmet dining and scrapbooking, with a rejuvenating daily workout thrown in just to mitigate the guilt you MIGHT feel from the nonstop munching.


And because I AM the cheapest woman you know, I couldn't check out early and waste a night already booked for the suite--Pete and the boys joined me and the three flat screen TVs and the humongo jetted tub. (The kids particularly grocked on that appliance, learning the valuable lesson that blasting jets will turn the tiniest squirt of shampoo into a tub o' foam.)

Saturday morning, the boys--we had to reign them in until sunrise--splashed in the pool until the staff forced us to check out and dry off, almost in that order. Then we headed back home, where "room service" means you have to make your own bed!

  1. Hey, didn't you spell suite wrong? Hmmm...must be French.
