Well I got to get out on the snow again this past weekend…  It was a shorter trip to Waterville which was actually awesome because it meant I was home in time to see Elias.  I actually took some shots of him for the PAD, but somehow in the mix with the 2 cameras used that day and the new computer I deleted the images of him… Anyway, I also decided to go snowboarding over skiing to see if I could still do that.  Well I could and I actually had a blast.  I’ve been very lucky with the snow on all my trips this year and this trip was no different.  The drive up took a bit longer than usual because we arrived to 6″ of fresh snow.  And somehow all the snow from the storm 2 days earlier hadn’t been skied off as I managed to find some knee deep snow in the morning.  It’s also interesting to see the different leg muscles snowboarding uses over skiing.  I’m not in great ski shape, but I’m in even worse snowboarding shape unfortunately.  I still managed to ride from 10am through 3pm though with only a quick pit stop for lunch.  Riding was also a lot more fun than I remembered.  I was kicking myself for no skiing simply because of the awesome snow and leg issues, but I did have a blast sliding around all day.
