well this is going to be another general email
things up in the snowy mountains have been really good lately.
last Sunday there was a huge dump of snow about 10 cm and this is big,
everyone takes advantage of that cause you don't get it very often and I was
up there fast. couple of my roommates had the day off and we were cruising
in some nice fresh snow, not necessarily powder but soft and good. we
messed around on a jump for most of the day and just cruised the hill in all
our glory, emma was very happy as well. my buddy from Canberra
came up on the following Monday and I spent the next two days fully riding
with him from 8:30 right to 4:30, that's what time the lifts close here.
on tues though it was friggin nuts, 110 km.h winds and the all the chairlifts
were on wind hold.....wind hold have you ever heard of that. they don't
run the chairs cause its too windy....what the....? oh well that means
more people were on the front of the mountain and less were in the back where
all the t-bars are, why was there less in the back of the mountain cause if
you wanted to go back there you had to hike back up to get to the front, but
it was all worth it cause the wind was slower in the back and it would bring
snow over the runs and you couldn't see where you rode before cause it would
cover it up, some people let little things get in the way too often, oh well
gives me a better opportunity to utilize what they miss out on. man im
getting too complicated. anyways the next couple days were really sunny
and I have been up about 4-5 times a week, I never got to do that at
home....awesome. but riding here is way diff than at home its
weird its mostly spring skiing all year round, its kinda nice and sunny but
sometimes its friggin hot, I don't remember the last time I wore a jacket up
there, excluding that windy day.
new news from my Turkish delight job, on fri night the two chefs, husband and
wife snapped at the owner and one of the workers there, threw a phone at the
wall broke some dishes and just up and quit...haha kinda funny, but now the
restaurant has been shut over the weekend and I've kinda been laid off, how weird
is that laid off from a restaurant...oh well, should be getting back to work
on Wednesday which is good cause I need to start bringing in some cash so that
I can go do the other stuff I want before I go home. well keep in
touch everyone and ill talk to you soon...
cheers
