Hey All,

I'm back from a brief morning session at Blue mountain. When my alarm went off, I did not want to get out of bed. Yesterdays Gaper day festivities tired me out and raindrops beating down on my window was demotivating. I rocked out to Trick Daddy and Trinas Take it to the House and just as I neared the mountain..I Like To Move It..came on to get me hyped for skiing in the rain. I arrived at the lower lot at 7:15AM and it was 36 degrees with light rain. There were about 6 people in total booting up.

I was first to be scanned in and I began with a run down Razors which was fast and smooth except for a few divots left by the groomers...then a run down Challenge which was similar. In the first hour I skied 8 runs and then I skied an additonal 4 runs in the next 1/2 hour. I skied Razors four times, Challenge four times, Paradise twice, Switchback to the lower park once, and Lazy Mile to the falls once. JBS was out with 3 of his hardboot/plate binding carving friends..and I think I saw Skier1111 as well. My body was achy and my back was sore. I really need a massage..

I left Blue at 9:03AM after 12 runs and there were a couple dozen cars in the lower lot and it was still spritzing a little. There was some wet snow on the top couple hundred vert but it didn't stick. Now I'm back in the A..and in need of some rest and relaxation..Only 6 more days until Blue closes..
