Starting off Right


I didn't have any blackeyed peas and cornbread on New Year's Day so I'm kind of asking for it.
Hopefully, pizza and Patron are acceptable substitutes cos that's what we had.

Steve, Sue, Josh, and I spent the day at Steven's. Shelly sadly had a headache and couldn't join us (she's really banking on Chinese New Year to change her mojo anyway, but she was missed.)

It wasn't a bluebell day but it was mostly clear and crisp. Not too many people.

Josh has been telemarking exactly two days and is already faster than me. I really hate him sometimes.
And now that Spanky has his new board, he's beating me back to the lift most of the time, too. I'm running out of excuses for why it takes me so long.
1- Some rookie cut me off.
2- Had to stop to tighten my bindings.
3- Got lost.
4- Got a phone call.
5- Dropped my flask.

If anyone has any ideas, send me a PM.

At least, when Josh telemarks, he gets tired faster. He and Sue were gonna head back at 4 and me and the Spankster were going to try to go bell to bell. Nine to Ten. Imagine our surprise when they stuck a CLOSED sign on Skyline at exactly 4:01! Fucking Hell, you're kidding me. It's a goddamn holiday!




So that was a wrap for all of us. Sue leads the way so far with six days in the snow so far. Steve and I are right behind with five a piece.

The one week countdown to Whistler begins NOW!
