April 27, 2008 (Sunday) Ski Fest

Jen and I have a committment , sorry maybe someone else can cover the tunes.....here's last years video..... Skifest 07 Have fun!

Was that a typo?  Did you mean girls? 

Funny … back in second and third grade we'd sometimes refer to girls as "grills".   

I won't be able to make it but if it's looking like there'll be a shortage of, uh, barbecues, someone can come to West Seattle and borrow mine; it's about 10" x 18".

I spent a nice morning skiing at Crystal today. It was beautiful up there. A little new snow made all the slopes clean and white.

The pistes below the Campbell Basin lodge have received only a little new snow since the ski area closed. Easy skinning up. There's more new snow above the elevation of the lodge. I found some pretty decent powder on the north sides of Threeway Peak and Silver King, although it was wind affected in places. South and east aspects were more more sun affected, but not as mushy as I thought they might be. During my morning tour the freezing level didn't seem too high yet. There was a cool breeze. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

The "Skubags" (Skoog-Subak family) should be there tomorrow, and I'll bring a donation to put in the kitty for TAY. Hope to see you there!

Thanks Lowell. Nice to get a first hand report. We'll be there!

I'm totally bummed I missed you guys. however thanks to technology, I get the first picture post.

Pretty clever Justin.
We missed you too!
Nonetheless, the Cassman and crew did "almost" as well as you with the refreshments.
A great time was had by all.
Jeanette and I were marveling on the way home at how well this function seems to go with no one running the show and just about no organization.
Great tasty treats, everyone sharing, Great to  see new faces and old.
Let's do it again next year.
In the mean time, Sourdough Chutes next then the Slush Cup!!!
