Man Trip I

So for Christmas the ladies of the group got all us males a cabin in the mountains at Sunrise ski resort in north east Arizona. We left early Friday morn (5am) and started our trip north. It didn't take long for everyone but Tim and Myself to fall to sleep. Well it turns out that after a while I fell asleep too. We all woke up in a little town called Showlow and stopped to have breakfast and noticed that the outside temp was a chilly 17. We got food at BK I think and for some reason I thought it would be a good idea to get a chocolate milkshake. Not the best thing to wake up to. Anywho we kept on truckin up to the slopes, when we got there we noticed the lack of cars in the parking lot. Our first clue should have been the lack of snow in the parking area, we forged on. $104 later I was hitting the bunny slopes. Giving Josh Aaron and Aaron C. some of the fine points on snowboarding, ie. What ever you do don't catch an edge, front or back. Surprisingly after a few runs down the bunny hill Josh and Aaron C. wanted to brave the only other run that was open which, sadly enough was green all the way down. I was very impressed with how quickly J and AC picked it up, on the other hand they did have one of the best teachers on the hill that day. Aaron D. on the other hand was having a rough go at it. Falling down wasn't the hard part, it was getting back up that really put him out. He gave it a good college try (30 min) and the returned his gear, and went to the lodge to work on Sundays message. It wasn't long after him that the rest of the gang was finished as well. You see we are in the mist of a drought, 120+ days without H2O, so accordingly there isn't any snow, man or God made.

Next time on Man Trip......

That night at the lodge....The car rides were the best part........And the poker tourny at the Hondo Casino

Sorry

So sorry I haven't posted in a long time. Please stick with me, I have a lot to say coming up and some of it is going to be about how much I hate computers, mostly PC's and how my friends are trying to convince me to switch over to the Mac world. And I will also post a pic of my new TV, I know exciting stuff. So again, more to come soon.
