I never thought I'd post in a tattoo thread, but I am curious about your tat Justin. I know that's City Hall in Philly with William Penn at the top and the "rage" is a twist on the iconic "love" statue, but what does it mean? Or is that too personal of a question? Cool looking piece of art, btw.

You guys made the front scrolling banner of the JFBB website! You have your own welcome message up. They are prepared for the invasion. So bummed to miss it...

Oh shoot! We're going to miss it this year! It was fun to meet everyone last year, even though I couldn't keep up with any of you. We'll be at BB on Saturday - my son is riding with the BBD Team now (yay!), but we have a "family obligation" on Sunday and won't be at JF. Have a blast - the conditions this year have been wonderful.

Now the New Year is complete! Welcome back, Robert!

Very late to the discussion but I wanted to pop on to say hi! It was great to put faces with names, even though I couldn't keep up with any of you! LOL! You are all hard core and I'm...well - not. I managed to lose Barb on the very first run down Tbolt. Sorry Barb - I fell on my Momski Faceski! I'm much better on groomers. At least that's what I'm telling my ego. Technical abilities aside, it ended up being a great, if not crowded, day at JF for the Momski family. My son was tickled the whole day over the "are you old enough to drink beer" question he got from a certain PASRer (who shall remain nameless) at 9 AM. Jacob now swears he looks 21. My daughter was also impressed by the group and declared Johnnystyle's style to be "so cool". Indeed. JADIP!

First ever trail report, so here goes! Beautiful day at JF today, despite the slightly overcast, somewhat foggy start to the day. The fresh snow made the crazy drive up the night before well worth the white knuckles. Spent the night at the Momski Chalet and got an early start. We made first tracks/chairs - a Momski first! My friend and I were all over the mountain and the conditions did not disappoint on any run. Perfectly groomed trails and lots of fresh snow in the glades. Many figure eights were made! LOL! The bumps on Exhibition were perfect and we got a great show from the lift watching Ski Patrol run sled drills down the bumps. We skied everything from Jane's Lane to Floyd's and back again. No Elevator, although I peered over the edge. Gulp. Most of the morning we had the runs to ourselves. For me, the run of the day was Challenge - went from perfectly groomed to nicely bumped and felt different each time. The trees were amazeballs. Very nice all around. JADIP! We headed out around 1 PM to get home in time for the real world - kids off school bus. Can't wait to get back up for the snow this weekend. Looking forward to PASR day on Saturday.

Good to get an eyewitness report! Thanks GSS...headed out in 30 minutes! Everyone enjoy the Pocono Pow.

We're doing the same as Barb. Kids have off until Tuesday, so we're heading up for an evening session at BB and will be at JF all day Friday. I can not get over the amount of snow we got in the last 24 hours. We have 18 inches plus on the ground here in Central Jersey. I'm hoping Route 33 will be okay by this afternoon. Can't wait to hit the real snow.

No skiing for us this weekend. We have a big holiday party. But...soon! We'll be up for 10 days starting the 23rd. Hope the PASRs have some mother nature made snow to go along with the man made stuff at "Jackson Frost". Think SNOW!

Jealous! I love JF on weekdays. I also can't wait for Winter Break to start for my kids next week. 10 straight days of skiing. Let the countdown begin...

We also had a great morning session at Boulder on Saturday! Hubby, kids and I were a bit lazy, so we didn't get to BB until 10ish. We were amazed to find how empty it was for a Saturday. We figured everyone was over at JF for opening. We lapped Little Boulder, Lower Sitzmark and Freedom for about 2 hours. Took a quick break and got back out for another hour or so. The conditions were beautiful - sunny, perfect temp, nice snow conditions. A big change from Freezing Friday when we got 2 runs and called it a night. We left around 1:30 with big grins on all our faces and great start to the season.

Hey Philly! Hope the surgery for your son is nothing too serious and wishing him a quick recovery. I'm headed up tomorrow with my little ones - my daughter is under the weather, but determined to get on the slopes this weekend. Hopefully she'll get a few turns in Saturday.

Yay! We'll be up with the kids on Friday and Saturday. Don't know if we'll make it to Frost - may just hang at BB. I'm so excited the season is finally underway. I just hope this storm tonight is more snow than rain...

Here's hoping. Looks like we might get some help from mother nature Saturday into Sunday. We're headed up with the rug rats Saturday afternoon to load in for the season, so we'll run over and take a look at BB.

Thanks to JFBB for a great 08-09 season. For this family of four, it was a memorable year on the snow, and we can't wait to get back for 09-10. Next stop on the family skiing tour is Spring skiing in Colorado next week. Then the countdown begins for Po Co Know Winter '09. Enjoy the warm weather, PASRs.
