I'm Dreaming of a White...

...Birthday! It came a little early this year (not like it needed to). If I could have a present like this each year, then bring on more birthdays, early and often. Following her normal modus operandi (generous and loving), Amy got me the best present a skier could ever want — Heli-skiing at Whistler.

This is my second time and conditions were perfect. While not deep powder, the snow was soft and plentiful on a bluebird day. The POV video gives you a feel for the "heli" experience — heli–good!

Snow Driving in Duvall

It's been a week filled with snow, sleet, freezing rain, ice, power outages and many days working from home (and now rain and flooding can't be too far behind). On one of the few days we ventured out, I filmed our ride home to show that we actually do get snow in the winter in lowlands...and can drive in it.

It's All Uphill From Here

The race was over an hour, so I've time-lapsed the middle, and you can scrub the timeline to 2:45 and/or 3:20 to get on with it. WARNING: POV video is a bit "busy" and may cause dizziness.

Each Fall, since 2004, we've been traveling to Boise, ID to do the BB HC race that our friend Jeremy introduced us to. While only 16 miles, it's fast and has an elevation gain of 3K feet and doesn't let up until the last mile. This year, I decided to wear my helmet cam to record some of the action (from my POV). Next year, I'll mount it on my bike making it easier to watch. Enjoy! ATD
