Snow boarding gets me outside and higher in the mountains but it is all great stuff. Snowboarding can cost a lot more. It is relatively cheap in Juneau though.<BR/><BR/>I drove around the other day surrounded by mountains and sun. I feel in awe of this place on a sunny day. When we have 4 weeks of constant rain, it feels quite different though.<BR/>That is my 2 cents about that.Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722715751099817584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6197282825927348199.post-38470480371020138942008-12-16T04:22:00.000-09:002008-12-16T04:22:00.000-09:00Kalen, I am actually a cross country skier and my...Kalen, I am actually a cross country skier and my daughter said, "You are snowboarding today." I thought she was nuts but she had me on the board in a few hours. If you can hike, you can actually Xcountry or snowboard. With practice, you improve. I am gone until Jan 3. School starts Jan 5. I might take a road trip to find some sun. I believe I am better at X country.<BR/><BR/>I am looking forward to seeing the OR crew and the rugrats.Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722715751099817584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6197282825927348199.post-60076011545777439372008-12-16T01:59:00.000-09:002008-12-16T01:59:00.000-09:00I could never snowboard.

I bet you can't wait to see your grand kids. I am guessing you are there until after Christmas?<BR/><BR/>BTW: I did see your comments on my blog about not having access to the playlist songs when you try to open it. I think I thought of something and if I figure it out I will let you know!<BR/><BR/>Have a great flight.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539583838978744802noreply@blogger.com
