    I love this thread so much. Thank you so much for sharing.

    Ice cave pics are really trippy.

We spent weeks on the wild coast. Eastern Transvaal,,,,what a place. Sudwalla Caves. Lisbon Falls and countless others . Threw 100’s of pounds of candy to the native children. Bought their crude works of art, still my most precious mementos of my years there.
    Sounds exactly like my 2.5 yr experince in South Africa (except for the wife part). True highlight of my life thus far.

    Oh, I have my days, that's for sure. Been sitting around for a month, about gone "round the bend" as the wife would say. Starting to feel human again, finally. Going up to JH over the weekend, will try the Teewinot lift, no need to bust my gut open.... or worse....

    What I really need is a long weekend up in the hills. We need some snow though, not near enough. But I have patience enough...it will come.

    I've been on drugs too, not Percocet, but close enough. I figured that's what you were ribbing him about. So, Concussed?

    Doctor said I was good to go, some lifting restrictions for a couple more weeks, but "I see no reason why you can't go snowboarding this weekend".

    Sweet! I will try to play hooky tomorrow and head up to the pass, we shall see. Hope the boss doesn't get too bent, already missed 2 weeks last month. He will get over it!

    Waiting for real winter. Still haven't seen anything serious down low. Need it. Want it. Gotta have it.

    The whole family works at the local hill and most years it doesn't open till mid to late December, so we still have time, though it is hard to not get excited about it. Love it!

    Some more shots from last year, for those of us who have yet to make a turn this season!



    I keep telling her to lean forward a bit....


    What happens when you don't lean forward....




    Ryan, what a clown!




    Foggy morning on the lift...


    Roads like this? Bring it!

    This thread puts a huge lump in my throat.

    Simply cannot get enough...thank you very much for sharing all of this.


    Two things have become very clear to me:

    1) I need to go walk in the woods waaaay more often.

    2) I need to take my 2 1/2 yr old son with me.


    Hats off to you for establishing such powerful priorities, and remaining true to them.

    I will never tire of this stuff.
    Keep it coming!

    Wow I just spent about an hour running through this thread while I'm at work.

    Goals for next week: TGR/internet less - outside more.

    Your pictures alone have inspired me to make my work days more efficient so I can enjoy my surroundings more. Awesome thread......

    Cold and snowy outside....got me to thinking about hard winters and what was the worst one I could remember....this one came to mind....

    February 1989...nasty storm centered over Clark county for a week. 30 below or more with winds up to 50 mph. Anything that was outside - died. Cows, moose, deer, rabbits, coyotes. Everything.

    I worked in Hamer at the time and was stranded for several days in my office. Just outside my window was a haystack, two deer took shelter next to it..... they froze to death. Standing up. I kid you not, anyone who drove by, over the next several weeks, thought they were alive and would comment on the "cute deer over by the haystack". When I would tell them they were dead, they were at first incredulous, and I would have to take them for a closeup look. 4 weeks later one of them thawed out enough so that the head "bent" over into an awkward pose. Unreal.

    One only had to drive around a bit to see literally dozens of frozen carcasses. Anyone who knows where "Sage Junction" is...picture this.... there was a roadblock in place on I-15 for several days there. You could turn and look south and see the hills around the valley for +30 miles, towards Idaho Falls, but if you turned and looked north, (under the overpass), it was just like looking at your television that has no signal....fuzz. You could barely see 20 feet into the "void". Bizarre. I have never experienced anything like it before, or since. Twilight Zone-ish.

    Dug up some photos....
