It has been some time since I've sat down to write here, but the stream of thoughts and ideas in my head have been flowing on. A lot has happened since my last blog post and it would be difficult for words to do all these experiences just. I can honestly say the last 2 months have been the best of my life. I've been living in the shadow of Mt. Rainier, the Queen of the land, along her veiny, root-like appendages. Here in the Cascades I have found myself constantly challenging myself on multiple levels. Interests I could only live vicariously via others' words, pictures and videos have become more a reality for me. Moving forward I will try my best to paint a picture for any one out there who may be curious as to what I have been up to. That will take some time. For now, here is a simple list of things I have done over the last 2 months...no particular order...just a list of things that have taken me to unprecedented levels of happiness for me in my life...
-Being on my snowboard...every single day
-Backcountry riding
-Backflips
-Scaring the $h!t out of myself on a regular basis
-3 black-eyes in a 6 week period
-Broken nose
-Shredding Pow
-PaRRtying and stuff
-Sharing a passion with others
-Winning $42.50 in a foot race outside the tavern
- Channeling my inner ninja
- D.I.F.T.S.
- Trying to adopt the NIKE mantra as best I can
- Bottle dancing
- Laughing uncontrollably
- Dual-boarding
- Teaching a ski lesson after not skiing for 10 yrs
- Feeding off the Mountains and their bounty of goodness
- Stepping outside my comfort zone, and then wandering around outside as much as I can
- Working hard, playing harder
There is so much more to this list and over the next few weeks I'll try to piece together all that I have taken from this amazing experience thus far. Thanks for reading y'all. Until next time, send 'er
