Not planning on 1/8, but I'll probably be back on MLK Day. Maybe once over Christmas break too.

Hey, I had time to crush 3 beers before we got on the road. And Greg, my tiny bladder thanks you for stopping.

I want to get a day or two in at Hunter between now and New Years day.

I can do dec 22, 23, 29, 30 and 31. Hunter locals, what days would you recommend for avoiding the christmas crowds?

I'm guessing the weekend before Xmas should be OK..

Oh, and who toke advantage of the flex tix? $24.95. What a deal, and what nice people at Potters

And driving home on the thruway...who knew I'd get my doors blown off doing 75...only bad part was on 278...basically 2hours 15 minutes

Yeah, let's do that again!

The quad being down really wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. My legs hurt enough by the time I got to F lift anyway.

Flex tickets were a nice deal. That's what I used.

I always have a choice between the GSP and 287 for getting home. Either one is a crap shoot, but the GSP sure was bad Friday night. But sounds like every highway was bad. The advantage of the GSP for me, it dumps me out on the NJ TP and then I can fly. With 287 I am stuck on 206 all the way to Princeton and that isn't fun either.

Yeah but when I got home I passed out before dinner. Great skiing with you T.

Brettski · Dec 17, 2007, 11:25 AM

Well since I do all the driving, that all has to wait until I get home

It's scary enough out there...can't wait till Jersey enforces the cell phone law

Thought my Hamstring was healed enough, but was sure sore when I got out of the car...not to mention the back started to act up, and the knee got pretty tweeked slamming into the piles of pow...damn flat light

WHEN CAN I DO THAT AGAIN!!!!

Friday was a great time. It was nice to put some faces to the names. I couldn’t believe how many AZ’ers met up at the fingers. Looking forward to the next outing.
