we've done these before so here are my far flung hopes more than goals.

Attend church. yeah you know which one.
Enter the bmmc. and probably get laughed off the course but hey, its my dream.
Go west again. preferably utah and not cali although i have free lodging in california.

I just put in a call to DCF. ;)
Gee, thanks. ;)

[*]Get her skiing independently from the summit by the end of the season
Alright, now I'm about to be shown up by a little girl? I haven't even skied from the summit of Sundown... well, if you're talking Gunbarrel, then I haven't. Though I have skied all of Mohawk. Remember, I only had one season under my belt. Never skied before the winter of 2003-2004.

Thinking more along the lines of Tom's Treat actually...

07/08 goals.....

...Kind of has to coincide with great snow, but simply getting out for as many fresh-snow mornings as last season's 2nd_half would suit me fine.....

But wouldn't she be a sight to see? ;) I'm always amazed by those little ones zooming down tougher terrain that I've tried, no fear. No turning either.

Just wait till you hear your little one asking "mommy/daddy can I go off the jumps that that person" as they're looking at some kid go launching off the biggest jump you've ever seen in your life:eek: My answer now is "ask your mom" ;)

3 or 4 years ago at Stowe me and a buddy took a shot down through a pretty good tree line, I caught up to him and just as were doing a high five pole clink a train of about 10 little kids come flying of this 8' ledge right by us

Another goal is participating in more than one Gaper day...those days are hella fun and I actually found my dads old fanny pack..and it's mad steezy...I can keep all types of gear in there including a roll of duct tape in case I ever break my binders...Another goal is to work on some more grabs...and do even more crotch grab spread eagles than ever. I want to get booted up to the stratosphere on my new wide twin tips..nice floaty airs to a smooth landing..and jib off some gatorade bottles with steeze...Last season I got owned when I tried to jib a gatorade bottle but it was 32 ounces which is way tougher than jibbing a 20 or 24 ouncer...One of the benefits to skiing/riding Blue mountain is all the garbage on the trails to jib over....

I also want to hit the marquee route under the six pack again..wow I almost got owned on that on the St. Patricks day storm. I was going so fast through the poe..and jumped over a little bush and landed on an upslope but braced myself properly...The second I hit that route..all the boarders scraped the shizzle down to bare ground..nothing like waving to one of the red coats above on the lift when you're getting Pennsylvania Poe worthy of a Hell Yeah...

Lots of high fives on the lift for stoke..from lots of random people..and hopefully hooking up with some MILFs from Cherry Hill....Holla
