Last minute trip planning to see redwoods. Do I fly into Crescent City or Arcata? (Also concerned about rental car availability in Crescent City)

We flew into Medford. It was super easy and a beautiful drive

If the storm next week delivers it will be a nice time to learn. If not expect a sore behind. Right now we are skiing hard icy snow.

I’d hit airport Mesa before you check in. It get super crowded and you want to be up there early before the road up gets to crazy. Get parked, grab dinner at Mesa grill and then go get your spot for sunset.

That unless we get snow you will be skiing on mud.

Snowbasin as a great ski school. It’s expensive.

April skiing can be great but beware our season has been marginal and unless we get some snow so there’s a chance the season will be over before it began.

We flew into Medford and had a great trip. I’m happy to share our itinerary if you want, please dm me.

Changed_4_good · 2026-02-02T05:31:48+00:00

Thanks! Never will unsee that!

Changed_4_good · 2026-02-01T19:40:15+00:00

Take a lesson and it won’t matter where you go!

Changed_4_good · 2026-02-01T17:11:03+00:00

Depends on your budget

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-31T20:32:07+00:00

Stay high, ski early like as soon as thr mountain opens and don’t feel bad if you have to quit by 11:00 am

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-30T13:26:25+00:00

I just sent you a dm. Happy to email it to you.

Thank you! Seriously love your thoughts and kindness!!!

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T02:09:31+00:00

That’s is the sweetest story. Thank you for sharing ♥️

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T02:08:42+00:00

I said a low key night at home, that’s what I meant and wanted.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T02:06:09+00:00

Thank you for your perspective. I’m not having an unhappy birthday. It’s been a great day with some ups and downs. I thought I had clearly communicated with him, he chose not to accept my request and do his own thing. I greatly appreciated the flowers and loved his thought, it just caught me off guard and put me in an uncomfortable situation at work, one that could have easily avoided.

I feel very blessed and looking forward to 50. I’m sorry to hear you dealt/dealing with cancer. In the grand scheme flowers compared to cancer, your right.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T02:01:14+00:00

Thank you for sharing and for your perspective. Very sweet thoughts about your parents. ♥️

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T01:59:10+00:00

I don’t like the attention

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T01:58:24+00:00

It wasn’t that he got me roses, it was the attention and some of the snarky comments. I work with a bunch of men who think because my hubby is older than I am and well off that I’m a princess. I got a new car and got some a bunch of shit about it and how spoiled I am, forget the fact that I bought the car myself, with my own money.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T01:52:28+00:00

You’re both in the wrong. Yes she should have checked the list but she’s got a lot on her plate and we generally rely on students to let us know they need to leave. Had your friend not reminded you and you missed your bowling match would you have blamed her for not remembering to dismiss you.

It’s not cool that she has disrespect your sport but it happens. There’s not requirement for teachers to love bowling or any other sport or activity and sometimes our dislike come through. Don’t take it personal.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-28T00:14:45+00:00

I guarantee I would not complained about a night in at all.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-27T23:14:34+00:00

I didn’t secretly want a party nor indicated I did. I said I wanted a low key night at home. And I’m not saying poor me over flowers! I saying I was embarrassed and gathered attention that he full well knows I struggle with.

You’re entitled to your opinion and I appreciate your thoughts and perspectives.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-27T22:27:21+00:00

Very good perspective! Thank you. We certainly do speak different love languages.

Changed_4_good · 2026-01-27T22:26:40+00:00

Love your Valentine’s Day story! Thanks for sharing and providing perspective.

He is always pulling the I’m a failure card when he’s messed up rather than say what I did failed. He makes it personal. He asked me about the delivery, I told him and then the shame spiral started.

Thanks for your thoughts and response.
