    So the first words out of my mealy mouth this morning were:

    Mine was a little different. Dungeons & Dragons all nighter at my house last night. Empty Dew
    cans and chip bags every where, piles of dice on the floor, game play manuals all over the place.
    Teen boys wrapped up in blankets on every available flattish upholstered surface. Frost outside
    the ground.

    Darsh maybe you need to find some higher class digs?

  2. 10" of fresh fluffy sticky snow.

  3. English "summer" - 40 degrees, raining, windy. Go figure..... no wonder they call this New Englalnd.

  4. The horrible sinking feeling that it was Monday. Quickly followed by the warm inner glow of
    realising that it wasn't.

    Darsh sounds like you're living on the edge.

    Peace, Bill

    The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
    an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

    No he doesn't. In fact, I was thinking of relocating a few years ago to that same place. After
    mulling it over a bit, I figured that even though I would be working for a dude with a ponytail up
    there, I can still stand some of the jive down here where the trails are year-round.

    JD not much for snow

  7. Clear skies and 51 degrees when I headed off for the trail at 7:30AM with an expected high at the
    trail of 75 degrees.

    We didn't get much right here, few inches maybe, but we got some! And the local ski area (Monarch)
    was reporting 14 new inches at 4:30am! Here in Southern Colorado, that is HUGE. Betcha won't hear
    from MattB today.

    Oh, and what specifically did I wake up to? The wife's dog Alice yakking up something big on the
    bedroom carpet.

    Are you still allowed to call it Purg? Won't the thought police come to your house and force you to
    call it, uh, whatever it's called now?

    Four weeks will pass like nothing. And CO is going to have a snowy Spring. I feel it in my bones.

    Guess it could just be time for my motrin.

    Shoulder dislocation about 4 weeks ago, and I'm pretty pleased how it's coming so far. I can ride,
    gently and in a fairly upright position, but I'm still a ways away from being able to safely ride
    offroad. Can't safely ski either, dangit. Pole plants would be really bad. And if I fell on my elbow
    again before it firms up some, the shoulder would probably pop out pretty easy.

    I don't want that.

    I won two ski passes to Monarch at a benefit ride this past Summer. Today would have been a good day
    to use them. Nice powder day for folks who could afford to play hooky on a Monday.

    The Grand Mesa got a foot on top and was getting more when I drove off it this evening.
