I just LOVE you people who come on here and brag about the WONDERFUL trip you'll be taking. Us working stiffs, REALLY appreciate that. Seriously, have fun and we'll see you when you get back.

I don't ski or snowboard. Haven't probably for 15 years. Yeah sounds weird coming from someone who is only 24. But that last time I did any downhill skiing it was probably when I was around 10 years old. I have never snowboarded period.

I plan on relaxing and drinking.

The way I see it is this.

1. Skiing and Snowboarding are fun. No doubt about it.

2. I truly haven't skied for at least 15 years and I have never snowboarded period.

3. What happens if I get hurt. I am driving myself for this trip and no one is coming with me. I am meeting all my friends at the house we rented. Thusly if I did ge hurt how they hell can I drive myself back if it is a bad injury not to mention we are only going to be there Thursday thru Sunday, and coming back on Sunday.

4. So I truly just want to relax and drink, because hell that is what I am good at LOL. Plus for the past three weeks I have been basically working 7 day weeks. I need the time off.

Not getting hurt is the perfect rationalization for not skiing and only relaxing and drinking. Wish I had thought of it.[8D]

Go skiing S70, Take it easy in the morning(No black diamonds) then have a cocktail at the lodge to loosen up, Go back out and enjoy the rest of the day.
You'll be a little sore the next day, so start it with a good breakfast with Bloody Mary's or Screwdrivers to stop the ache. Get back out there and ski like Bode Miller.
I did the above at Wildcat, Pinkham Notch,N.H.
First time out in 3 years, It was {:~o) outstanding !
Oh, and more courage(100 proof Vodka and cranberry juice) after lunch !
