  1. Crazy. Hope they have the curtesy to spray paint in English
  2. That's cool. Had the opposite effect on me. Sometimes staying with my grandparents as a kid in nyc in the 70s the subway cars depressed the hell out of me
  3. Just curious TP4, what is the big attraction to graffiti?
  4. My Holly just issued a warning and upped totals. Blue is looking good! Now just have to figure how to time this puppy
  5. #1 son at UVM. Gives me an excuse LOL. Seriously, the northern Vt skiers, and MRG in particular make me feel pretty inadequate as a skier
  6. Wanted to go to MRG because never skied it with this much snow before. Also figured single chair would be a sure bet against wind hold. Nope, single wAs on wind hold all day. But double was plenty good. -5F and only -18F with windchill so for day 3 of our artic expedition it was fine. Seriously, there were almost as many kids as adults out there having a hoot. (Pet peeve about sensationalist news coverage saying "don't go out"). Did some woods but mostly stuck to bump runs as son #2 schooled me on the ways to rip lines on the natural bumps. Skied until 3. Hit the road. Home now. Seriously, all you young (under 35 to me) dudes at blue, hop in your vehicles and drive north. Vt is pretty amazing right now and should be for the weeks to come. Canyons lands ( spent a bit of time here) Taken before iPhone shut down from cold like majority of trip...
  7. Wind will be a bitch tomorrow. Thinking single chair at MRG should be s good bet???
  8. Balmy 8F with light snow all day so far. Woods are the bomb today. AM shift was Bonnie and jet side. Heading tram side after lunch

    Injury

    Get well man! By the way, as an ex-long distance runner let me tell you nothing ever good happens from running downhill. Never. Unless you are road racing just don't go fast downhill . Don't. Good thoughts at you and a quick recovery
  10. I have been to Magic once. It made me smile real wide. One of the things that made me smile was all the families with little rippers. Good friggin vibe. With the snow southern NE been getting that place will be awesome. You chose well
  11. Took guitars advice and skied paradise to CR again and again again.... 3:30 and goggles are completely frozen. Done. Awesome day. Jay tomorrow
  12. Warmed up to 1F [emoji1] Cold temps had snow really grippy. Any blue u groomed and I kept going over the handle bars. Blame it on Indiggio's wax job [emoji3] But on steeper stuff nice flow was had. We found castle rock chair and that was where we stayed.. Going back out now back to CR. GSS, you are right. Def a slacker on my part
  13. Basking Ridge got two things; plenty of MILFs and the $$$$ to attract the MILFs. HS ski team does not surprise me...
  14. You should see Indiggio's plate for breakfeast. Dude needs guardrails on his plate the food is piled so high. Nice trip guys and great pics
  15. Light on locals for sure. We had a fun time, not epic. Next year I got you for a round or three at the Peruvian bar
  16. Safe trip. Train to phili from DC? Save Dad a winter drive
  17. Lifties moved the crowd through quick. Need them at blue ( or get Bo back). Never more then 5 min wait. But to your point, yeah, pretty light on the locals. Newark through a connection at St Paul. See if afternoon flight happens...
  18. Snow was firm until sun softened. Good day,. Skied opening until 4:00. Legs are toast. I think Indiggio is gonna book a family trip text year here. Epic-ish (kinda) trip over. Back to Blue next weekend
  19. With a Yankee hat on. Was selfie-ing his ass off at top of supreme lift. Funny as all hell. But I'm sure he had a good time and that is all that matters
