So, I knew I had to test and sign off on a tool for work today at noon. I didnt expect it to take long.....so headed off to Squaw (there is Starbucks with wireless).
Skied from 9:30 to noon, and ran to truck for laptop.
It has now been two hours sitting here.....my tool is broken and I am waiting on IT guys to fix so I can retest.
My boots are on, skis are right outside the door, and it looks beautiful outside.
THIS SUCKS!

your definition of personal hell is getting to ski a half day? you're an asshole.

New Jersey, I've been living it for the past 11 years. Ugh. Thank God for summers at Stanford.

Alright.....so maybe my title was a bit melodramtic. But it is really all about expectations. I am ok when I have stuff going on and have to miss an occasional ski day....but when you think you are getting to ski and then get stuck with frustrating work shit for 2 hours......hellish.
Anyhow, day was redeemeed. I had a fun final 2 hours (Thanks to Squaw keeping KT open until 4:20.....the first evidence I have ever seen of their "We Care" slogan). There was decent spring slush to be found if you played the sun right.
Here a couple poor picts.....as repentance.
Views off KT, around 4.
