End of Winter!

Happy spring!
(Although it’s still snowing like crazy over here!) LOL
The week before last, my friend Kenny & I hit up Targhee Mountain Resort on the other side of the Tetons & boarded all around (I love a free ticket)! I also attended a bear awareness seminar to refresh on mountain bike guiding factoids & volunteered to work a rockin’ KHOL dance party @ the Playhouse . . . Also, there was the 1st annual pond skimming party at Snow King – so last weekend, people were going down the mountain & trying to get across a pool of water while doing some crazy stunts. It was a great time, however, I’m still taking pics with a broken camera (no viewfinder)!
On a sad note, I had to say farewell to my travel-nurse friend Andrea (she left Jackson Hole) — but, it’s awesome that I’ll see her next week in Seattle! & I’ll definitely chill with her in Hawaii when she finally gets a job in Honolulu
On another note, this past Saturday was my last day of snowboarding . . . & of course I had an AH HA moment! I was boarding my best because I had finally discovered the “foot pedal” many have told me about. Watch out next year Jackson – I’m gonna be an awesome snowboarder yet! I boarded with a couple of girlfriends that day & then stayed for the free concert at the village. It was great, minus going home soaking wet
& yesterday was the annual hill climb. Although it’s a bit red-necky, I still went over there for a bit, met up with some friends & rode the lift up to the very top to check out the snowmobile racers. The race involves going straight up the steepest mountain in the US (Snow King).
This week it’s work, work, work & then pack for my trip to the Pacific Northwest — Sacre & I are heading over to Portland, Seattle, the San Juan Islands and Victoria (Canada) with his dog , Trick. Yipee — a week vacation!!
