Merry Xmas

Merry xmas to everyone, I hope you all had a great Christmas with family and friends.  Its good to be back in Des Moines for a couple days to spend time with my family.  I wish we could have gotten up to Wisconsin to see everyone, but due to the weather we didnt get into Iowa until late Christmas eve and missed the chance to make it up North.  Man, it is sure cold here, Colorado has been pretty nice this fall/winter temperature wise so this Midwest weather has me freezing.  If it's going to be this cold and snowy, I want my mountains.  Its too bad that I'm only in town for 3-4 days, I really wanted to see everyone, just dont have time.  I'll try to make some time to get back before Spring.  Just wanted to say Merry Christmas to everyone, I hope all is well and I miss you all.  Here's to everyone finishing off 2010 with health and happiness. If you didnt accomplish what you wanted to this year, no worries, there's still 5 days left, go do it.  One love.

Mid December

What is up people, hope you all are doing well.  Been kind of slacking on posting on my blog lately, keeping busy i guess.  The weather here on the front range has been pretty warm as of late.  No snow, mid 50's-60 degrees out almost everyday, although that is supposed to end before xmas. Ive even been able to get out on the golf course and basketball courts in December, crazy.  Luckily, a quick drive up a few thousand feet of vertical and there is snow everywhere.  When not in the backcountry, the resort of choice for me is Breckenridge, and the snow up there has been over 40% more than average, making for some fun powder days.  Today, the Winter Dew Tour started up at Breck and is showcasing the top pipe and park skiers and snowboarders in the world.  I cant wait to get up there and scope out what they can do live, look for it on NBC this sat and sun.  As for me, all is well: happy, healthy, just living life to the limits. Well, gonna run, skis need a fresh wax. Hope to see everyone back home in just over a week while Im back for Christmas, take care.  One Love
