AN/ I don't know if there are mountains near Stars Hollow, but in my story there's not. Rory is out of school for the summer, and she still has another year at Chilton.
"Ooh! This article in this magazine says skiing conditions are perfect on the slopes! Soft powder for big air! Rory let's go!" Lorelai exclaimed.
"What! Mom, we don't know how to ski!" Rory said.
They were sitting in Luke's sipping coffee.
Lorelai was flipping through a travel magazine.
"You bring up a good point, but so do I! We may not know how to ski, but we can still be cute ski bunnies!" Lorelai grinned.
"Haha. Maybe we could actually learn how to ski on this trip." Rory suggested.
"So, you do want to go!" Lorelai said getting excited.
"I guess, but when? The so called slopes are hours away!" Rory said.
"We could go this week. Summer has just started here, but there's still snow on the mountains. I have some vacation time, so let's go while you're out of school, and I can have a vacation." Lorelai replied.
"Okay, it's a plan." Rory agreed.
"Yeah!" Lorelai cheered.
Luke walked over. "What's all the commotion about?" he asked.
"What ever do you mean?" Lorelai asked.
"You two are up to something. I can tell." He said.
"Are you accusing us of something, Lucas Danes?" Lorelai demanded
"Yeah, I am." Like said in a matter of fact voice.
"I demand a judge! Oh, there goes Taylor! He can act as judge!" Lorelai grinned getting out of her chair, and walking over to the diner door, which Taylor had just walked by.
"No! Forget it!" Luke said alarmed.
Lorelai sat back down smiling.
"Luke, we're going skiing, that's all." Rory grinned.
"Okay. Well, I'll get you more coffee," he said looking at Rory, "you I won't." he said glancing at Lorelai.
"Fine. Taylor!" Lorelai called.
"Okay. I'll give you more coffee. Just keep Taylor out of this." Luke said.
"Okay." Lorelai agreed.
"So, when are you leaving?" Luke asked acting like he didn't care.
"Well, it's Monday, and we need time to pack, so Rory what do you think about leaving Thursday morning?" Lorelai asked.
"What about Grandma, and the dinners?" Rory asked.
"I'll take care of that right now!" Lorelai replied pulling out her cell phone, and dialing her parents.
"No cell phones!" Luke said pointing to that oh so familiar 'No Cell Phone' sign.
"Oh, Taylor!" Lorelai called to Taylor as he walked into the diner.
"Never mind!" Luke said walking back to the counter.
Taylor looked up. "Did I hear my name being called?" he asked.
"Never mind!" Lorelai echoed Luke's previous remark.
She called her parents, and got her and Rory out of dinner for the next few weeks by telling her mother about their plan. Emily thought about joining them, but Lorelai convinced her not to, by reminding her that she had lot's of events that she had to host for the next few weeks.
"Alrighty!" Taylor said grinning.
"Every time you threaten to bring Taylor into the issue Luke panics. Interesting." Rory observed.
"A new toy!" Lorelai grinned.
"How does it feel to have that kind of power?" Rory asked.
"Fabulous!" Lorelai glanced at Luke who was glaring in Taylor's general direction.
"So, we don't have any ski's." Rory stated.
"We'll snowboard." Lorelai said.
"We don't have snowboards." Rory sighed.
"We'll toboggan." Lorelai said.
"We don't have a toboggan."
"How do you know?" Lorelai asked.
"Well, we did have a toboggan." Rory said.
"What happened to it?" Lorelai wrinkled her forehead.
"You used it for a chip platter, and you didn't want to wash it so you threw it away." Rory replied.
"It was to big for the sink, and it had sour cream all over it!" Lorelai said.
"Excuses." Rory replied.
"Well, I don't care what we do as long as I get to wear the cute fur earmuffs!" Lorelai grinned.
"We don't have any!" Rory said exasperated.
"What do we have?" Lorelai asked.
"A novelty ski figurine that you said you had to have from Mrs. Kim's." Rory replied.
"There's only one thing left to do." Lorelai said dramatically.
"What's that?" Rory asked.
"Shop!" Lorelai grinned.
