snowboarding.....this winter: argggh, yea!


i am writing this one-handed; hence the lack of capitals: i am not trying to imitate ee cummings or to be cool. come to think of it, i don't really have to try to be cool : for i am so macho when the chips are down. take for example my pumpkin: my pumpkin owns, it looks like picasso himself carved it. there, that's enough proof of my cool being. it is all in the orange, hallowed glow: people always say that i have a certain glow, so it must be so! am i the pumpkin ? am i the glow? what rubbish this zen hall o ween stuff is!

the last two words in the title are part of my manly harsh call, which, i have been known to let loose when i am particularly excited. i am very keen to start shredding the runs this winter. both of my kids are extremely keen to start snowboarding this winter: can you hear my manly man call right now? this is going to be so coooool. notice how i emphasized the coolness with those extra ohs? i am so keen to cut some turns....

i used to surf back when i was young and just a little less harsher than i am currently. i think some of the skills will transfer. i am hoping my buddy krut will pursue the sport at some point, too.

i walked with echo my dog yesterday and it was so beautiful alongside the dike at 264th street. it was windy; i love the freshness of it.

I vowed that last winter would be our first foray into the wonderful snowy world of snowboarding, and what happens?
a warm spell!! aaarrrggg!!
do you remember? even baker was shut down most of the season. we settled for a day of tubing up at hemlock, but any real snowboarding/skiing action was not a possiblity anywhere.
it was pathetic.
pray for heavy snow-fall this year and we're right there with ya!
