no rails will be ‘jibbed’ this day

Two of my co-workers took the day off to go snowboarding today (we are web designers after all). After getting out of bed especially early and a embarking on a tumultuous drive we arrived at the hill. Alone. The hill was closed.

Well, we weren’t totally alone. There was a staff lady in the lodge (which was locked). She was nice to us (who wouldn’t be, we must have looked pathetic).

With no lift operating, we walked up the hill (which should you an idea of how big the hill is). I had what I think might have been a stoke (I will confirm this on WebMD in a few minutes). We had one beautiful run on powder and corduroy*. Just enough to remember how much fun it is, then back to work.


* “Corduroy” is a term used to describe the snow after it has been freshly groomed and still has the little corduroy-like ridges from the groomer. It’s a beautiful thing.
