summer > winter

it has been said. girls are half naked, lots of daylight, no shoveling the driveway for an hour before you leave the house in the morning in the frigid cold, patio beers, barbecues, biking, surfing, long walks on the beach.

yeahhhh i love me some summer.

Two days ago it was 55 in Minnesota, yesterday it was in the 40's, right now mid 30's and sunny as hell.
This was the first snow-less Christmas for me, this winter sucks balls :(

Its called going to Hood/Whistler/South America.

I totally agree with Anathema. I know all you 15 year olds think skiing is the be all, end all of thing do with your life, but you'll soon learn otherwise. I love skiing with all my heart, don't get me wrong, but summer is so much better than winter, I don't get how you could argue otherwise.

Winter:
Skiing
Drinking as soon as its dark.

Summer:
Skirts
Bikinis
Swimming
Boating/Wakeboarding/Slalom
Tons o Daylight
Hiking
Skirts
Camping
Music Festivals
Golf/ Disc Golf
Kayaking
Biking
Skirts
Outdoor Parties
BBQ's

And if it were isolated to spots for skiing and other winter activities only. Imagine it being a beautiful day, going for a swim in a pool and then heading up to your mountain later in the day to go ski in some fresh snow.

As much as I'm craving snow, it's pretty nice not freezing my ass off while taking my dog out to poop.

Right?

I may be a tad biased right now because this is my first season in 10+ years not having a pass. I know my years of 70+ days on hill are over, but Im totally okay with it.

I will always be a skier. Its a mindset, not a lifestyle.
