Probably hit your area tomorrow afternoon?? Expected 30 cms here Maybe this will finally be the winter that has balls. Hopefully too. I finally got to use my snowshoes for the first time today. I bought them summer 2006 off steepandcheap. Goddamn, I was wishing that we had snowshoes whne we were in Quebec. The snow was deep there! I thought all canadans owned snowshoes That's why chossy hasn't gotten his citizenship yet. What about becca where's her snowshoes? Becca is the one that really should get snowshoes. She's not very good at going through deep snow. Problem is that there's not really enough snow out in S.Ontario to make snowshoes really worthwhile. We got a Yakima car rack, a kitchen radio that we have to return (got one for my b-day). Nathan got me an ice screw, some climbing holds and a nice little water colour of Halifax (which was really sweet of him).

I'm going skiing tomorrow, so I'll return to busyness in a bit when I start to de-bur my edges on my skis. I caught a nasty rock a few weeks ago and my ski is in need of some dire TLC. Hope the skiing was good e. Bet the hills were not busy at all yesterday. Best time to go! I was actually suprised that it was as vacant as it was yesterday. The conditions were good. That is if you like hard, fast snow. My legs are killing me right now, but it's all in good fun as I plan on heading back this weekend to do it again. Hopefully there will be more terrain open on the mountain. I've been accustomed to the hills being a bit busy on Christmas in the past. We used to get up, do presents, get dressed and head to the slopes. Then again when you've got 14 world-class resorts within an hour's drive things do tend to be busy all winter. It was nice to not wait in line at all, all day. Literally ski right to the chair without stopping.
