This is the third year of this post. I should have made it earlier but I'm hardly ever on the internet anymore.

Since it's winter now it's time to go west. I'll be spending the rest of the winter traveling around the rockies blowing glass and skiing on snow days. Anyone who wants to meet up should post a reply in this thread. This thread has been great the past two years. There's always more places to go than anyone has time for.

Normally I post a bunch more but i'm in a hurry and you guys should know the rest.

p.s. NKOTB are going skiing as well

I was wondering if I used my snowboard goggles to blow glass will it protect the glass from my ultra coolness?

(Only a question the bigles would have an answer for)

Yes, it will definately protect the glass from being "cool". As well it will protect the glass from becoming "not janky" and "worth money".

My local ski area is less than five minutes drive from here. Not a destination ski area by any means, it is still the largest in New Brunswick.

If anyone is in this neck of the woods, get a hold of me. Our house was built as a hotel, and I do ballet skiing on 201's. I hope to post a video of me doing some skiing this winter.

BigOl' Bigles,

If you make it up to Idaho, get in touch. I'm 15 minutes from our local hill, Brundage Mt., which is a really sweet sort of unknown hill. And we have Tammarack resort about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes away.

I'm also building a new shop right now that will be sweet for visiting blowhards.

Later

Matt, just because my skis are 2 cm longer than yours doesn't mean you have to get all pissy.

I'm gonna be in banner elk, nc for a week from the 12-19th, there probably won't be much snow, but i'd be down to blow glass if any one is around that area.

This Monday some of us will be at tiny little Eldora. There's an extra pass if someone wants to go.

Last Thursday pulled into keystone for some night boarding after driving 18 hours. It began to snow, didn't stop until the next afternoon. There was sickening powder Friday, Vail was F'n kick ass.

I'm up on Mt. Spokane on most of the good days...... Even though it's such a small mountain I love it. It's only half an hour from my house.

Wish I was out west. Back in the day I taught skiing and snowboarding at Breck. Now I just do the family vacation thing up at Sugarloaf. Great mountain, anyone up there?

Oh, was that a taunt Miss Cody?

I'd go and race you (and win on a 10 year old board) but, I'm broke, so you win by default.
