2025 Lake Placid World Cup schedule deets from @thekenchilds.com — and his LP morning routine is pretty stellar, too! ☕️🥞

They may think they are the lucky ones but I’ve had a front row seat to these two for months — zooms @meghancolleen.bsky.social and coffee @thekenchilds.com — how lucky am I to call them both my friend?! I better be the first one on the wedding invite list! #indies #oasis #luge #truelove
I’m emotional.
😱
Damn straight, you are. @meghancolleen.bsky.social is a gift.
Stawwwwwwwwwp! @thekenchilds.com 🩷
