The Snow is Here!

The snow is here!  Plenty of it, in fact, at Big White already.  Fortunately, after a few consecutive days of snow, yesterday the sun came out providing a spectacular backdrop for the wedding that took place at Crescendo.  Congratsto the newlyweds!

Not many new techy gadgets at Crescendo this year, but we’ve made considerable improvements and upgrades to enhance you experience (as if Crescendo needed any enhancements).   What types of enhancements?  Below are just a few.

Theatre Enhancements

Enhancements have been made to the 7.1 Surround Sound System in the theatre.  New amp and pre-amp providing better sound separation.  The two subwoofers that are now separated in stereo, in fact, totally rock!

Not to forget that last year we canned all our DVDs, and now have a 24 Terabyte movie server, with more than 850 movies that stream digitally into the Theatre.  Check-out our constantly growing selection at https://c.mymovies.dk/perlman (password:  2504486299).

Other Enhancements

Custom cabinetry and cushioned seating in the garage have been added for your Ping Pong, Wii, and Workout experiences.

UV tinting on the Pool & Ski Entry Doors, and custom fit shears on the glass block staircase, now make the home’s climate more controllable for your comfort.

1000 count and 1500 count Egyptian Cotton Sheets have been added to provide the ultimate in coziness at the end of the day.

We’ve added several small appliances to our gourmet kitchen (most at the request of our guests), and we have a brand new BBQ grille.

Crescendo has also undergone a cosmetic overhaul.  Practically the entire home has been repainted, the cabinetry re-stained, and the floors stripped and re-varnished.  Also, check this out.  Our two art walls are finally no longer bare.

Direct Flights from LAX

Great news also for those living in Southern California.  United Airlines, beginning 19 December, will be flying direct to/from Los Angles (LAX) and Kelowna (YLW).  Leaving LA at 7:00 pm and arriving in Kelowna at 10:00 pm, means that even the workaholic can fit in a weekend of world-class skiing at Big White, and pamper themselves in a world-class home.

Watch for Deals or Take a Tour

Remember, for those of you who can take advantage of last-minute specials, I’ll be posting those on Crescendo’s blog and also on our Facebook page.

Also, if you know when you are going to be at Big White, and you’d like to tour Crescendo, please let me know.  Especially if I’m at Crescendo at the time, I’d be happy to show you around and, perhaps, share some wine and some gaming.  After all, I’m always looking for new victims to beat in Ping Pong.
