Yeah I know, I'll tell you what though, for having a ski slope in NJ they do a good job of keeping it open.SkaredShtles said:
Are these like little trolls that come out of the woods and create snow?
Snowmakers........... this concept perplexes me..........
Thats how I feel about snowboarding. Last year I didn't do a damn thing thru winter and this year I've been snowboarding as much as I went for the past 2 years total. It's been great and while I miss biking I don't miss it as much as last year.MMcG said:Morning - skated at hockey practice last night, then took Liam and Connor out for Burgers and hot dogs and fries and Milk Shakes at Shady Glen - good times!
Jackson - you are going to be in kickass shape come springtime.
I have done very little pedaling in the last six months - but I have been ice skating a lot. I guess that means I should have some power and energy for short steep climbs come springtime, as long as I have the spinning muscles developed in my legs eventually.
I'm having a blast spending so much time on the ice though so I really don't miss riding my bikes too much.
No, we tried that ONCE. She's not a big fan of "COLD".MMcG said:Stosh that is cool that you can go boarding so often - does Aubrey ski or snowboard too?
that's kinda what I'm hoping for. Initially I just wanted to avoid the 15lbs of winter weight I usually put on... but now that that is pretty much a given, I'm hoping to be a leg up on a lot of people come May.MMcG said:Jackson - you are going to be in kickass shape come springtime.
Do you stay at a hotel there? Care to elaborate which one?I Are Baboon said:I just woke up. I took the day off for no real reason. We're heading up to Mt Snow tonight for the weekend. The snow is supposed to be pretty good.
MBC's cousin lives about four miles from the base lodge so we stay with them. Free lodging. WOO HOO! Her dad also owns a condo there (he's on Mt Snow ski patrol).stosh said:Do you stay at a hotel there? Care to elaborate which one?

I hear ya man. I'm maintaining/maybe losing a small amount. With the amount of cardio I've been doing I should be dropping pounds like crazy. Getting old sucks.douglas said:I got about 10 of your 15 :mumble:
I wish I kept track of hours on the bike/week in the summer...I'm doing 6-8 hours cardio/now and I'm f'ing gaining weight!

Yeah I just need to modify my diet, thats the hardest part.Greyhound said:Stosh....I'm proud of you for keeping up with your workouts. You'll be a lean, mean, Internet-fighting machine before too long.
My day is going pretty good so far--a little hectic. One of my fellow managers here had his house burn down yesterday, so I'm trying to manage his stuff and mine today as he won't be in to the office for a few days, so everything is pretty much set on turbo-mode. One of the bosses is in a foul mood today, so I'm doing everything I can to rock the corporate camoflage and blend smartly with my environment. I evaded detection earlier by masquerading as a box of wrenches and toilet paper---the key is to remain very still......very, very still.
I won't lie to you.....I stayed up too late last night drinking beer with my wife and a good friend of mine. We killed the 1/4 keg of Miller Lite that I had just bought just about a week ago, and moved on to the liquor cabinet where the martinis started to flow like a cool mountain stream. Somewhere around 1:30am I realized that I had to be up at 5:30, so I broke the party up and hit the hay. Boy, that was more like a fast nap than actual slumber.......
Anyways....gotta run. Y'all have a good weekend. Pops and myself may run over to the Saltwater Fishing Expo to check out some deep-sea boats on Saturday. He's looking at trading in his flats boat for something we can get out and get those bluefins, kings and stripers with.
