It's snowing... started about 2 pm cst, hasn't stopped since and it's supposed to snow thru most of Monday morning. The first snow we've got that's actually gonna stick around for a bit.

I've skied this entire afternoon... crappy local bump with a virtually non-existent vertical that big time pros and prolly some of you casually drop, but... being there on skis having fun with the snow while the rest of the state was freaking out about the "severe snow storm" just felt... happy.

My first race season ever starts this week. I get to practice several times a week and travel places in the Midwest over the weekends to sorta ski competitively. I'm prepared to suck, but it still feels happy.

I've got two 3-day-weekend-type trips to Breck over the next 3 weeks coming up (CO mags... change for a nickel?)... that and the race-related stuff = the next month or so is pretty tightly booked with skiing, which is a first for me. Which feels... happy.

That is all.
