Thanks to spas, you don't need snow to glow in N.H.
Long known for its reliable snow cover and cross-county skiing, Jackson is now a spa center, too. Romantic weekends are the newest specialty of this village studded with inns, circled by mountains, and reached through a red covered bridge. (Boston Globe)

Couple's getaway gives a man's man just the right touch
To say I was shocked would be putting it mildly. My fiftysomething husband, Bill -- a man of intellect and charm but historically not receptive to any suggestion that he explore his softer side -- inexplicably agreed to join me for a couples spa weekend. (Boston Globe)

For 2004: a metrosexual in the making
NEWPORT, R.I. -- My mission: to queer-eye myself through a full spa treatment. Friends saw the mission more pointedly: Could a highly-resistant retrosexual be transformed into one of the metro variety? (Boston Globe)

I had been trapped on tows, frozen in lift lines, and humiliated on moguls, sitting on my skis as others whisked past.
