The Winter that was not.
The beast is down! The Wait till next year begins! I spent two days in New Hampshire in 70 degree weather until the car crashed and tore two corners off. It had less than a hour of time on the track unsorted new design. Two different cars over the last two weekends never completed a session for different reasons except the nose feel off on both cars. At a few choice times over the last few weekends I have reminded competitors when times are tough corner ripped off car you could be golfing. Been chased out of a few paddocks with tools and gotten really bad stares but overall we had a few giggles and the general consensus about the paddock it is just a stupid silly game. |

Some years ago (the 70's IIRC) there was a British TV show that was quite popular in the US. "That Was The Week That Was". Nicknamed TW3. I'm proposing that the winter of 2011-12 become TW3. That Was The Winter That Wasn't. Well, anyway, I like it. We're booked into Sun Peaks again next winter for early season between Christmas and New Year. It was such a good time this past TW3. They actually had RealSnow(tm) which most of North America did not. I expect no less next season. I'll also take a jacket that actually looks good on me. The one I had looked like a bag. |

It wasn't all that bad in Southern California (I realize that isn't that high a bar to get over). SS opened Nov 9 and closed April 15, and the only day I didn't like up there was because it was snowing too much. |

Mine is big enough for a couple of thick sweaters underneath and has lots of pockets, so it looks like a very complex bag. No problem!

I never regretted going, but when the slush piles up it becomes unpleasant and exhausting. I was kidding myself that increased strength would make a significant difference :-( -- Cheers, Bev ------------------------------------------------ There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who don't. |

Kewl. Maybe this time you will stop by my place and try to make good on your threats to kill me. Of course, you remember posting my home address to help a freak who had threatened to shoot me, don't you? Ooooops, forgot. That balls thing again. You're going to diaper up and sneak through Seattle. You never have had the balls to spew your **** in person: just another cowardly terrorist who encourages others to do the violence he ain't got the nads to do. I'd offer to meet you up at Sun Peaks, but I ain't stupid enough to ski during Xmas break. Idiot. |

It seems that there's always some part of North America that's doing OK. It's just that you might have to travel pretty far to get there... Dave |

Not much point in going further this year, unless I head down to Bachelor. |
