Why is it that I can venture out to the Rocky Mountains, climb to 12,000 feet elevation and still be warmer than I am now in Missouri? It is frigid today in mid-Missouri. We rolled into to Jefferson City last night at about 10 p.m. and it was 11 degrees. What the heck???
Our stay in Colorado was very fun and a great get-away...even though Blaine is a slave-driver when it comes to snowboarding. Overall, I had a great time and can now actually call myself a snowboarder!
I will have to admit - after a terrible day on Saturday of spending all of my time on the ground and having the ultimate embarrassment - I actually loved my time on the mountain on Monday. I spent a half day making my way up and down the mountain and even did what most would not believe - I accomplished two successful runs down the black diamonds - a great accomplishment for my non-athletic, clumsy self!! (In case you are wondering, the slopes have green (the easiest), blue (the medium difficulty and can look intimidating when you look down) and black (the holy sh!t...I am going down that slope.) I MADE IT DOWN THE BLACK (and on purpose!)
I liked it so much....when can I go back? (Now who ever thought I would say that?)

Sounds like you are having just too much fun. Next time, I will be a mouse in your suitcase just so I can be there and laugh at you.
