Harry, heal up!!!!! You'll be out there in no time!!

I will confirm all the mags showed up, and all skied very inappropriate midwest skis. Harry also didn't throw any empty beer cans at the Volkl tent, nor did he throw any full ones our way....

Great see you all again!!! Except Axe, he didn't share any of his granola

Dammit Nate - it’s been a long winter and you know I need some for Lutsen this weekend…

[skiJ]

how's it going at lutsen (?) ! ??

[Harry]

At least one maggot made it up there. (not me)

The report was:
Friday, thunder and lightning, pouring rain, did not ski, went to Hungry Hippie Tacos.
Saturday, boilerplate snow, pea soup fog, officially Best Skier On The Mountain

I will let that maggot fill in any details I missed.

[skiJ]

conversationally,
the Best skier on the mountain
at lutsen when they opened The Plunge off Moose mountain was

Rob Delauries (sp?) circa 1992.

it's my understanding he's a TetonVillage millionaire these days ...

( bet he doesn't have a private island ! )

How's the leg, Harry ! ? ??
( blood clots are scary )

Rob D is a great fella but damn if he hasnt single handedly blocked almost all of the uphill views at the vill. And that monstrosity hes hung up in now may be his Albatross around the neck. Harry! wtf dude. Charging too hard. Also...Ikon works well in St. Moritz. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[skuff]

Harry- Hope you are doing better, and recover quickly!

[Harry]

Harry! wtf dude. Charging too hard.

That made me smile. insert grin emoji.

Doing better, but not out of the woods, not by a long shot.
More details in the Blood Clot thread over in Gimp Central.
One of my clots is over a foot long, I had no idea that was even possible.
Doc says that big one may take months to dissolve.
Thanks for all the kind words everyone. It helps keep me focused on the positive.
