It can't come soon enough for me. When it comes, I will be out of my cast and back in (reasonably) good shape.

COME ON Winter!!!

I had that very thought yesterday when my skis fell off the rack and nailed me.

4 months- not so long, right? 1/3 of a year, 160 days, 3,840 hours, 230,400 minutes. Just think, you'll be asleep for 1,280 of those hours, and at work for an equal number, leaving only 1,280 hours to think, free and clear, of skiing.

Okay, 1,279 hours, 56 minutes to go...

:eek:

I'm working on 3.5 hours of sleep right now...
Not as easy now that I'm in my 40's... Used to be able to stay up all night and go to work the next day..

THAT'S the way to think ctenidae! HaHa...breaking it down to function calls ALWAYS is the way to go....it sure sounds a heck of a lot shorter.

i was thinking about that recently myself actually. although, i just looked at the tucks cam shot and am debating giving it another go this weekend for first ever july turns. it would definitely be doing it "just to do it" though.

i dont think it is at "just to do it" phase yet maybe another 2 or 3 weeks from now... still rather ski on that then some of those little hometown ski areas
