    snow? No, it hasn't snowed yet, which is really weird. And the daffodils are coming up now. The end is near!!

    lol.

    You mean skiing or snowboarding? Lasik is pretty awesome, my brother had it the same time you did.

    the mountains i go to have a 2'-3' base which is pretty low for this time of year, but enough to enjoy my time on the mountain. as for riding something new, i do mean skiing or snowboarding. i used to ride without glasses because glasses in goggles is lame, but now i can see everything.

    I just visit family up there. Broke my leg way too bad back in 2003 (the story is somewhere in the depths of the forum) to do anything extreme like sliding down a mountain on a couple of wide sticks. It hurts to just basically exist, I prefer surfing and body boarding. (or calling it boogie boarding if you're gay) It's a lot easier on the joints. I have snowboarded a couple times, but I'd be too nervous and might pull a Sonny Bono.

    We had our first snow fall today, not too bad driving in it but I hate braking in it, the car shakes and vibrates violently :/

    no, it's closer to surfing and wake boarding except you lean forward down the mountain. surfing and wake boarding you lean towards the back. i relate skiing to ice hockey and i think that's why i picked it up so quick.

    I don't really do anything lol.... but I do bicycling because it's fast and easy on the joints. I never did boogie boarding.
