Imagine the Bairds in Aspen in the 1950s...

While at a memorial gathering for John W. Baird earlier today, I heard his son Steve Baird talk of his dad taking him skiing in Aspen in the 1950's because it was cheaper than skiing in the Midwest at the time. I don't know the Baird family well, but I'm glad to know that they love skiing too.
