Backyard Shred


So it snowed a little bit the a couple days ago and Christian begged me to do some snowboarding behind the Condos before the snow melted. He had a blast. He even did a one footer. I was privileged enough to carry him up the hill over and over and over.

PIZZA PARTY CELEBRATION FOR NEW GEAR AND WINTER KICKOFF!!





Dad came over to check the goods. The kids were loving it playin on the decks going crazy!!

NEW GOODIES ARRIVE!!!!






So my new gear arrived last night to backcountry at around 10 pm. I was at work at 6 am and my stuff was in the retail shop. My desk is right behind the shop and it has glass windows. The shop doesn't open til 10 am. So basically I had to wait for 3 hours before opening my "presents". It was like Christmas when you wake up super early and your parents tell you to go back to bed!!! I had it all open by 10:01. As soon as I got home the boys were helping me get it all dialed. I got the Slackcountry mounted up, but I won't have the bindings for a few weeks for the Machete. They were on backorder. The boards look better than I imagined and the boots are SOOOO LIGHT!!!! Blown Lite soles are sick. I will be wearing them for the next while trying to break them in. LET IT SNOW!!!! EYE YIE YIE!!!!

Construction














Me, Jessie, and my Dad went up Monday to put together the camp site. We excavated, then erected the condo. We collected tons of firewood. And we posted off where the water is so we can dig right to it this year. It was a super fun day.

The Condo


Here is the material all taken apart and ready to take up to the camp site to build. We are heading up tomorrow to assemble and get camp ready to go before winter sets in hard.

Changes

So I am making some pretty major changes to my plans for the future. At least for the next few years. I have decided to go to school. I had started college about 6 years ago when I worked at Qwest but quickly dropped out after 2 weeks. I was not motivated at all. I felt succesful enough in my work I guess I just didn't feel it important to do the whole school thing. However since the economy tanking I have taken a new look at things. I have not been working since Oct 2 and it's been nice to just have some time to think about stuff. I am excited for my new future and what it may bring.

New Addition for Winter Camp This Year


So for the past almost 19 years since we have been winter camping we have either slept under the stars or just put up a tent when weather was bad. But this year we are building a nice little shack. This is a pic of it with a couple of the walls put together. It will be lined with roofing paper and everything to ensure no water gets in. We will fill it with about a foot deep of straw for insulation. Monday or Tuesday if the weather holds we are going to take it up in pieces and assemble it up at the camp site so its ready to roll. During the winter it will be under up to 15 feet or more of snow, so we will need to dig steps down into the entry. It's going to be totally out of the wind and the elements. Should be pretty sick!!! I will get some pics after we put it up and then post more when winter hits.
