Sweetness























Some pics from the weekend (note snowbank size - more snow than I've ever seen).

We had a great weekend in Crested Butte. They have absolutely been getting crushed with snow this winter, snowing almost every day for the last month. The snowbanks on the side of the road had to be 5-6 feet tall, and you couldn't see over them when driving around town. It was really nuts. I've never seen anything like it.

So, needless to say, the conditions were great. It snowed for almost 30 days then was sunny the two days we were there. It was sweet. Woulda loved some of the super fresh, but with the sun, it was warmer and better for me to ride in. We managed to find soft stuff and evern a few pristine powder turns in there, too. Was a fantastic weekend. Crested Butte mountain is truly sweet- major steeps there.
Great to see some old friends and spend some Q.time w/ JK and Timmay.

A bit worn from two days of skiing and a good bit of driving, but still basking in the after glow of the weekend. Will be sleeping early as I'm so insanely sore and still tired from it all, and preparing for session number 8, which gets underway tomorrow. I'm in no way looking forward to this one, mainly just because I'm sick of chemo. That point has happened where the novelty has worn off, and now I'm just plain sick of going there. Guess going does get me closer to being done, so that is motivation to go just get 'er done.
