12/28..quiet holiday Monday..nice snow!!

[RidgeRacer]

Is that Creed song in your play list??

I'd rather listen to the sound my cats make when they cough up hairballs for 24 hours straight before that. But TBH my guy behind the counter here must've been hearing creed coming from my mouth when I was, in fact, asking him to take me lower. My negotiation techniques must've been off today.

Edit Doctor Oz has covid vaccine volunteers on his show...ooh this should help me get through the next hour.......

I'll be heading up for a night sesh tonight. Looking forward to whatever is left of the nice snow.

Jelly. I'm off today but sitting in firestone, watching a game show called 25 words or less (which I very much enjoy BTW) while waiting for new brakes, rooters, battery, a something flush, a something replacement and a something inspection. Will be back on Wednesday for a night sesh.

That's efficient. I try to save up all the shit that needs to be fixed so I only have to go once.

My favorite garage is in Johnstown. I dropped the car off in the morning and they gave me a ride to work. Then at lunchtime 2 people brought my car to where I was working. It was rad!!

I've also dropped it off and rode my bike home, then biked back later to pick it up. I cant sit in a waiting room, I go walk around or something.

I was complimenting you for your efficient style. But ok.

Back on topic. Paradise was like a western groomer yesterday.

[RidgeRacer]

While I appreciate that...you thread jacked none the less. Strike 2.

Took my youngest out this morning. Was surprised by the lack of crowds. Some started rolling in around 10 or 11 but the wait for the 6 wasn’t more than 5 minutes. We bailed around noon.

That's kind of unfair, since you were discussing cat hairballs, Creed, and your grate negotiation skills. Those topics aren't relevant to the topic of 12/28 quiet holiday Monday...nice snow!!

Yeah but Yeti's a whole different trail than Burma. You should check it out! I think my first time at Blue I skied Yeti and got 0.05 mm of air off one of the jumps.

Awesome morning with a good pace.  Best day for me at Blue this season.  NMDW isnt quite on par with other trails as far as snow quality, but still skis ok, its firm, but not firm and trenched out.  

None of us will ever know what the ski patroler actually said to us at the top of Razors, but i doubt it was "go really fast, its skiing great"  Razors was really nice, main was money.

He asked if I listen to creed which prompted my reply about hairballs. He's allowed to ask whatever he wants because it's his thread. Those are the rules Saltman.

@GrilledSteezeSandwich WTGAI today. It made me jelly sitting here in this miserable waiting room.

PS Robert Kraft is on Dr Oz now comforting a Pats fan who can't see his wife because of the pandemic. What a grate man he is. It's a shame I can't be here on Wednesday because Dr Oz is doing the Ultimate Bacon Lovers Buying Guide on Wednesday.

Comforting him because he's a Pats fan or cause he can't see his wife?

Did he recommend that the guy just head down to the washy washy while he has to be away from his wife?

I was pretty jealous when I realized @indiggiowas in front of me on his way to Blue this morning and I had to go to work. Sorry if I scared you with the honk.

No problem!  I’m deaf anyway.

I save it for snacking on the ride home!

Really nice night out there. Not many crowds at all, seemed like mostly teenagers and a decent number of rentals out so I'm glad blue is making some money. Run of the night as definitely Main Street. Got my first runs on razors and nmdw so that was nice. Soft edgeable snow all over the mountain with only a few slick spots but they were still turnable so overall awesome night. It was also really warm out so it was really comfortable riding.

I guess we missed everyone today? Got on snow at like 8:05, skied til about 10:30. Paradise was best snow of the day again. Whatever they’re doing on paradise, please do that everywhere else. Like 1-2” of soft chalky groomed snow to start the day, and there couldn’t have been more than 10 people down it before us. Everything else was pretty good, pumptrack on the ride side of tuts needs to get rutted in a little more though. Hopefully back up Wednesday AM before I have to head back home to start building my ark.
