    This totally sucks!!!

    Okay, we've got a shitload of snow falling in Eastern PA. And because PENNDOT sucks donkey balls, the roads are pretty much unpassable. My fifteen minute drive home from work took an hour. I considered braving the elements and going out tonight, but it would probably take five hours to drive there- and noplace to go after the lifts close.

    Might have to do some backyard jibbing tonight.

    I should have been flying into Calgary tonight..for 10 days..luckily I had the option to cancel and only lose $50 from the airline, and did so a couple weeks ago.(for a couple reasons, actually).

    Make the best out of it is all I can say!

    I drove yesterday - Whitetail and back. Spun out the Suby into the median, and almost hit a sign. Luckily the car is ok, and the airbags did not deploy.

    Well, I was hoping to write up a sick TR of my Pocono Powder Day, but it never happenned. When you go from blizzard to bluebird in twelve hours, the change in pressure creates some pretty intense wind. I swear, at one point the wind was so strong I actually blew UP the hill (it was only a few inches, but still, that's pretty sick wind). So by the time I got to the hill, any pow was either skied off or blown off (there were bare spots in the trees, just to give you an idea)

    I think I jinxed myself by watching Immersion before bed last night.

    Yeah, that has happened to both me and my daughter at Blue. That trail at the top of the hill as you get off the lifts gets some serious wind.No matter how I'm dressed, I freeze my ass off there until I turn onto one of the trails. I'd like to hit Blue one night this week but seeing how I appraise car accidents for a living, I'm not sure how much free time I'm going to have.

    You know, I have to thank NJ Governor Codey for declaring a state of emergency and closing the roads to non-essential vehicles...

    ...probably the safest drive I ever had on the way to Mountain Creek!

    ...and if somebody tried to tell me that I was non-essential, I would've gone angry whelk on him!
