I was surprised to see on this graph that this is the second best year
ever for snowfall at Mammoth

Meanwhile, Big Bear is just getting more mud.


Even though Bear Mountain is open, the pix are really pitiful. Barring a
miracle, do you think they'll have the courage to raise the prices for
the holidays?


This must mean we're going to have a good season a bit later, right? *RIGHT?


I bought some discounted gift cards last week. *They arrived today..
When I opened the envelope, I went right to the SS website to see the
mud all over the hill.


I wonder of the bar will take the cards.


There's never been a year since I started skiing that I couldn't go at
least three times...except for the year I stayed out because I'd broken
ribs and tweaked my knee the previous March or April.


My mom never knew. *She'd just have worried. *It's a real bitch carrying
groceries sometimes.


You broke your ribs carrying groceries?


Of course!

In reality, I shopped with my mom and carried in the groceries. *I could
hear the grating sounds my ribs made, but my mom couldn't.

Good times.

Well, I had to ask. I have this thing with my right shoulder which I
categorize as a skiing injury since it started when I fell out of bed
during a noontime siesta at Mammoth. If I don't aggravate it, it will
stop hurting after a few weeks, but i can bring it back with anything
from a nasty fall down to lifting a bag of flour.
