OPENING DAY PT.2

THE PIG WAS FAT, THERE WAS A SLAUGHTER! What an amazing opening day to the season, sun peaked through and it was blue all day. The snow was light as a feather which is very unusual for Baker but since it was so freaking cold all day it was dry as ice. I just swooped the afternoon report and it shows 13 degrees...Performance was right where I left off last year which was surprising not being on a board for so long. Legs were a little fatigued. (Modest truth) My legs are shredded, I feel I'm gonna be sore tomorrow but just about to hop in the Jacuzzi tub with some Epsom salts and snow cap beverage to finish the night.

Backing up, after riding and seeing old riding buddies & few pints later we hit the road. Northfork was full so we took second best at Joowana aka Craig Kelly's wife's restaurant and has some very good potato burritos, during our visit the power went out and ended up eating in the dark and paying the old fashion way.

Looking forward to the season, hopefully they get some snow by next friday cause the plan is to hit it up with the wonderful Roz.

SNOWING & WINDY

YUP YUP YUP! Its snowing in town and its def snowing at Baker, blowing bout 20-30 mph and got a bout 3-5 inches depending on where your stepping. Gonna be a sick day with my brother and some homies. Did a little work on the deck tonight, little wax, little blackout, puttin some flare on the season. Picked up some rumplmintz, got the gear ready to slay some pow tomorrow. Stay tuned for some pics and the report.

PS. Sabra hates the snow, got her all in her Holden Doggy wear courtesy of Pet Co, where the pets go and yea not so much, gonna have to get her some uggs and some goggles I'm thinkin. That's what you get when you don't get a real dog I guess, still love her though.

ITS OFFICIAL!

Mt Baker will open Sunday will full operations in affect. Super stoked.

Right now its 27 degrees, SNOWING, just got 12" of new and supposed to be gettin dumped on tonight, really looking forward to the report tomorrow.

The Roz has to work Sunday which sucks but I'm hoping my brother can make it, if not, well I think ill cross that bridge if I get there. Next Friday though it will be a a great day to ride since its still mid week and people are still workin so then me and Roz will be defiantly hitting the mountain for some pow pow.

Didn't work today, slept in, got a bagel at the local bagelry and have just been kicking it. seriously haven't don't anything. Been sitting on my ass lazy and I tell you it feels great.

Tomorrow I'm looking for a new beanie and loading music on the Ipod for riding on Sunday. Other than that just stoked to have the season finally here

Promising Opening Day Announcement

25" Base

Forecast is anticipating 12"-15" on Friday with possible snowfall down in the lower mainland aka at the house. So with 40" for a base it looks like it will be a cold good opening day for this Sunday.

Still undecided on some shoes but I might be looking at something more as today I was surprised with $400.00 bonus at work so Boo Ya..

Undecided

So here's the deal, really need a new pair of kicks to jus chill in, relax, even go to work in. Now with winter I'm kinda wanting to stick to duller colors but still having a rough time. I'm really into Clae right now, everyone seems to have Creative Recreation now and I'm kinda over Nike SB at this time, only custom ones are what I'm into now... Snobbish maybe, keepin it different is how i look at it. So here's a blog for the viewers, not that i get much traffic on here anyways, more less a diary, but if you have to stumble across this, give me your 2 cents on what I should rock. All items are in the same price range and I got a Promo code for 25% off so its whatever. I'm for some reason kinda feeling this steeze, plus with my work I cant get to outrageous, as it is people give me a hard time cause I don't wear Camo and Carthart... Kinda leaning already toward the Clae in Brown but the Seamfoam I mean common what blog are you on, but I have to think its winter in the northwest..

FINALLY!!!
