....and Vail is better than both. 

This is where they want to go, let it go.  They may not be that experienced as skiers, after all.  They may also be going for the views and accomodations, not so much the skiing. 

Remember, not everyone's hardcore, and Stowe seems to be doing OK for business - must be a good place!

1)  Canada Shmanada.  They can get married in Vermont.
2)  Killington?  Okay, gay guys go to Vermont to get married and ski and end up in Killington.  Set up for the next Wes Craven flick?  I think so.
