I've been a 'member' for awhile, but haven't done much posting - my wife and I spent the majority of last winter at home getting ready for our first rugrat.

Anyways, I'm Tim, 30 years old, I live in Dover NH, I snowboard, and I work a pretty run-of-the-mill IT job at a small local property and casualty insurance company (if you're from the New Hampshire seacoast, you probably know which company I'm talking about and understand that my description of it's size is very 'tongue in cheek' ;-))

Much like many people on here, I started skiing as a kid. Learned at Pat's Peak with the after-school program. I started snowboarding late in high school and used to get out 15-20ish times a season. My parents have a place up at Waterville Valley, so I head up there a lot. I also love trying out new places and have done most of the standard New England hills.

I'm excited about getting back on this mountain this year. It's been a disappointing start to the season, but I love that things are finally turning around!!

Prior to my current job, I worked in IT proj. management for insurance carriers (small/ mid size). We did a lot of hosting / outsourcing work.

Boring!

Hey Tdog, welcome aboard; recommend:

Trip Reports if you want to find out how the skiing is across the northeast (or the non-northeast, for that matter)

Misc. chat if you want to waste time talking about what you ate for lunch

Skiing and snowboarding for everything else :)

Where are you from / where do you ski / board?

Name is Kristina, married to FishingEd and am friends with Chris (xwhaler) who got us onto the site.
I ski a few times per year, spend time on the boat in the summer cruising the NH seacoast. I work as an Occupational Therapist here on the Seacoast.

Hi Everyone,
My name is Jeff and I live in Epping NH. I'm married with a beautiful 7 month old girl and a black lab. I own an auto repair shop in Londonderry NH specilizing in Lexus, Toyota, and Scion though we handle all makes and models.
I'm primarily a snowmobiler in the winter but my friend and neighbor Chris (xwhaler) got me onto this site and we'll be joining everyone at Sugarloaf in late March!
