    Nice TR and great to see you getting the goods.

    I was at sillytude also on 2/24 - and apparently missed you and iceman as well. I seem to be out of the loop these days, if there is a loop anymore.

    Fast and Bulbous, the Mascara Snake said. A tin teardrop clattered solemnly down the market drain. Pompous also bulbous, but grow fins, fast as serpentine butterscotch trickling down the economic lies. Free. Absolutely free. Only if you want to Be.

    I don't think I ever jumped stuff half the height of what you've done. So the arithmetic indicates you may be jumping twice as high for trwice as long!

    Can't begin to thanks you and MOE enough.

    A great honor and a great pleasure to have met you and skied with you BH.

    That's right, fast and bulbous.

    po: there's more pics, but who wants to see my kids skiing?
    frozen: my bad, d00d, didn't have enough time to touch base...you're not in Ogden anymore!
    Thanks Gary, it was a blast. Work re-entry is a scorcher....ugh. See you LBD?
    Thanks CW; keep us updated on the shoulder, something I need to look into.
    P11s: yeah, man! You going to be down this way anytime? There's some W/BC potential in the next month, so I'll ping you.
    Thanks TC. The basics are the best.
    MBSC, yeah, I'll be up that way one of these years when there's guaranteed good snow. I left just as things got good basewise. Thanks!
    Thanks BD; I'm just another ski addict trying to get by.
    And likewise MS; thanks for the hookup and tour, sweet spot there, I'll be back with my posse in tow.
    tm: backatcha! Nice that some folks out there __get__ it.
    SM, and MB/B: thanks!

    As I sit winnowing through the usual digital frustrations of woik, I go back and savor these moments and the people who reached out and shared . I'm lucky.

    It dumped a ton after I left, but the last day Saturday and ripping the shit out of the Cabin gut in bottomless pow, figure 8ing Shockley's tracks is still glowing. If you didn't ski Silverton, you have to go back, it's a different ski experience.

    Yeah, we didn't get to Silverton due to some complications in setting up our schedule. At first it was in the program but got sidelined. We drove right by it going from TRide to Durango the last day to catch our plane.... Definitely want to go back but probably a little later in the season to assure more snow.

    Hell yeahs Buster
    hear's to hopin the duration between sharin turns is shorter than 6 years, forgot to ask ya about Odin who was w/ ya last time. That mag wrote some cool shit.
    Pretty sure I mentioned the some skate out the road but most walk part during that post run safety debriefing
    Stoked to ski ya and break bread and share scotch w/ the iceman and D.
    The story of piggybackin your daughter up silverton for the last run of the day stoked the shitout of me.
    Where as spending Mondays this season working has sucked and sucked even more knowing you and the most eggsalad meat cats would be gitter er good.
    It may b blated or it mights b premature
