If I had to ski a bump on the map like Boyne, and live in the asshole of the universe, I'd go to Florida, too. Instead, I'll go skiing on a real mountain next week. Enjoyed the view of Rainier and the Olympics in the dawn light. I win. Again. Hey, Huggies? Stock up on diapers while you are in Florida, I hear they have a great selection. |

Merry Christmas everyone. *God bless us all. The local areas (Big Bear and Mammoth) are upside down. BB is getting more snow that MM. Neither is enough to survive without the man-made, but most of all the mountains is open. Mammoth announced they are opening 5 today, so only the chairlifts out on the margins are left hanging in the breeze. Bear Mountain has opened Chair 8 (Geronimo) and Snow Summit Chair 6 (Wall and Olympic) so all the big guys are running now. What they all need is a week-long dump, preferravly between Christmas and New Year's Day when I will not be skiing. |

I've been to Seattle, you should be able to see Mt. Ranier from your back yard. And the only time you'll ever see the Olympics is on TV.

That's sorta like saying you have a huge dick in comparison to a chipmunk. You would know about chipmunk dicks. It's the best in the midwest. That's like saying your dick is the best in a chipmunk cage. *It's better than most areas you go to. Sorry, Horvie. I've never skied an area with under 800 vertical.

No wait. and live in the asshole of the universe, I'd go to Florida, too. You live in Seattle, the worst weather in the world. Really? Just about to go play tennis. Outdoors. Without having to deal with assholes like you. I win again. Instead, I'll go skiing on a real mountain next week. *Enjoyed the view of Rainier and the Olympics in the dawn light. You dumbass. *I've been to Seattle, you should be able to see Mt. Ranier from your back yard. I face west. I can see the Olympics from my back yard. About ten times the vertical of the entire state of Michigan. *And the only time you'll ever see the Olympics is on TV. Wrong again. The only place I will ever see YOU might be on TV. Certainly not in real life. Chipmunk balls. I'll be enjoying the view from Space Mountain while your fat ass is shoveling snow and waiting in line at the soup kitchen. That's the only mountain you'll be on. Chasing teenage snatch at Disney. Shame on you. |

Bear Mountain has opened Chair 8 (Geronimo) and Snow Summit Chair 6 (Wall and Olympic) so all the big guys are running now. What they all need is a week-long dump, preferravly between Christmas and New Year's Day when I will not be skiing. I went to SS Thursday. Nice and cold in the morning, almost everything open, snowguns somewhere else so I could just hear them, not feel them. Chair 1 was OPEN, so I guess they listened to my begging. Nice snow, no icy or gooey patches, just nice. The bad news is it was more crowded than I expected. Must be a lot of kids out of school already. Midweek pass is good through the 24th, so maybe one more trip before holiday rates and wall-to-wall people click in. Stopped for lunch at 11:00 and chatted with an old guy I've chatted with before -- I recognize him because he has a bear hat and looks like Santa Claus. Engineer type, does a lot of international traveling, well off, raced cars, etc. Interesting guy. It occurs to me that he may be younger than I am. I really need to stop calling other people "old". After lunch the snow was feeling yucky, the crowds were considerably bigger, and I was tired. I think I need to postpone lunch as long as possible. On the way home it snowed for a bit. First falling snow I've seen in maybe 25 years. 5 minutes, enough flakes to see but not enough to stick. I tried to take a movie, but it didn't work out. A better movie would been taken going south on I-15 beginning a few miles north of the I-10 junction. Thunder, lightning, and enough hail that traffic slowed to maybe 30 mph, you couldn't see the lane markers or the freeway signs or even other vehicles if they didn't have their lights on. Sometimes I used the Braille method -- when I felt the rumbling I knew I was too far to the left (or right, sometimes hard to tell). I wish I'd had the GPS running because I really had no way of knowing when I was at the I-60 turnoff. I saw what I thought was a big turnoff which I figured was I-10 and made my way as far right as I could and hoped I could recognize I-60. Worked out OK. About a mile to the west there was no rain, no hail, and a certain amount of sunshine. I tried to take a picture of the hail on the hood, but that didn't work out either. It rained later in Chino Hills. Lessons learned: (1) ALWAYS have your GPS plugged in. (2) When I have to buy a new one, "lane guidance" is probably essential. The good news is that I may already have broken even on my season pass. -- Cheers, Bev ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++ "Attention: All virgins report to Paradise immediately!!
