Odin did a stint in Steamboat but is now happily ensconsed back in Portland cheering on the Timbers.

You did, but I obviously didn't understand. S'alll good though, hitching with skis brings me back.

The story of piggybackin your daughter up silverton for the last run of the day stoked the shitout of me.

Y'know, to the masses, it may see you're out there with Sun Ra travellling the intergalactic spaceways, but I'm touched: you're the only person the the planet aside from my dad that remembers. Deepest thanks.


Take care on Planet Ray.

While I may share an appreciation for scotch and skiing with old Ernie, our common interests fortunately diverge at the shotgun and his use thereof.

Looks like a great trip. Taos was silly good this weekend.

Bumpers. Finally had a chance to read this TR properly from top to bottom. EPIC little adventure with lots of maggot connecters built in to up the radness factor. The kid stoke and pictures definitely gets me stoked and motivated to get my ten year stepson his first day @ Silverton sooner rather than later. Thanks Buster!
