You had to go and do that didn't you... I was fine with my head in the sand!!!

Since I don't race my cat, I spend very little per year on my boat. For example, relatively speaking, a "large" sailing expenditure for me last year was to buy $40 worth of line and $100 worth of Vertglass products. So to say the least, I was surprised at what some of you say you spend on sailing in a year. So this little topic prompted me to put together a sheet on my projected ski expenditures for this year.

Ugh!!! 2 trips west, a handful of planned weekends in MI, lift tickets, travel, hotels, etc... my spreadsheet says to plan on about $4k this winter. And that's not counting any spontaneous trips north to chase good snow storms (usually at least once or twice a year), or another set of used powder skis that I may or may not buy this year.

Now I'm beginning to feel shame...
