new adventure

Well a lot has happened since I last posted. Lots of beers have been consumed, I've lost love and found it again for a moment, my old goals failed or forgotten. I've traded last years skis for this years fatter, rockered skis. I've moved to a new town in a 400$ van with a 1500$ hang glider on the roof in search of my American dream of skiing every day and getting paid to do it. I find myself in the Mormon/ski town of Driggs Idaho where the view of the Tetons and Grand Targhee resort sits well with me while I drink Coffee in anticipation of the next big storm. I already feel at home here, and the people who surround me have a similar vision. Last years snow fall was 529 inches which is two winters worth in Montana.

There is nothing stopping me from doing everything I want to do in life, and I need to appreciate how incredibly lucky I am to have real freedom. The "real world" is just a bad dream. It just seems easier to get out of bed in the morning when you're doing something you enjoy!
