Can't Jump So Going Snowboarding

Recommended Posts

Before I started skydiving snowboarding was my favorite sport. Last year only got like one weekend of snowboarding since the weather was always good for skydiving. Since I can't jump this weekend due to weather I'm going snowboarding with my daughter. My daughter went to Mammoth last year and learned to carve so now she can keep up with me and we won't have to hang out on the intermediate slopes. Should be a great time. We're just going locally, to Mountain High. Know some skydivers also snowboard so wondering if anyone else is gonna be there?

Have a great time...but beware that the snow level came down to 3500 feet today...you may have a hard time getting there )road closures and stuff). And there's another storm waiting to slam us tomorrow afternoon/evening...don't get snowbound!

Have a great time though!

Yeah, that's what my husband was telling me. But that is why we're going to Mountain High instead of Big Bear. They usually keep the roads really clear so you don't need chains. We'll see. I'll be really bummed if I can't go skydiving or snowboarding, maybe I'll have to stay home and bake cookies or something :S.

Oh, yummy. Chocolate Chip cookies are so good when you're sick. And I'm sick. Maybe I'll bake some if I don't go to work tomorrow. Or some cornbread and chili...

Be careful and safe. Skiing and snowboarding are dangerous!;)

What day are you going Evelyn?

I'm thinkin about heading to Mtn High on Monday.... it could be my first ride of this season.

Once last year when I was planning a Mtn High trip, they were requiring chains to get there (possibly to travel through the cajon pass??) so I just stayed home. Sounds like this could be the case this weekend too.......?

How sweet are you?

Tell ya what...once I'm back on my feet, we should get together and bake Frenchy a batch together. LOLOL! Well, maybe not, but we really need to get together for dinner soon, in any event.

Have fun today, and be safe...I've heard avalanches are happening, but I didn't catch where (except somewhere here in CA). Lots of mudslides and rocks in the road, so be really cautious driving.

BTW, here is a link to the storm coming tonight...
The storm heading in
Gonna get nasty here soon....

Evelyn ~ Michele and I have talked about this in the past. How about dinner for the three of us? :)B|

Michele ~ Feel better. Sad to hear that you still are not feeling well. (((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))) Also, if you are interested, a small group of us skychicks are thinking of going to Vegas the last weekend of the month. You're welcome to join us!

I have them occasionally. LOLOL! :P And maybe we should make a batch for Kurt, too!

Ev, yes, let's get together for dinner - me, you and Rosa. 'Twould be fun, don'tcha think?

Rosa, I can't make Vegas (this time). I have to make up work time that I lost these last two weeks. Tons of files sitting on my desk right now; so many in fact that I am heading in there shortly to attack them.

No being wussy, put those chains on and get up that mountain. Just remember 4 wheel drive does not equal 4 wheel stop, so keep your speed sane.

Of course I'm the kind of person who hears of a blizzard in the mountains and will haul ass up there for fresh powder even back when all I had was a Mustang GT with no chains. Now I have front wheel drive and just got chains so look out.
Fly it like you stole it!
