Snowboarding

My first time snowboarding. We went up with Jill, Todd and the kids so I figured it was a good time to give it a try. I honestly never thought I would try snowboarding. I have been skiing most of my life and am pretty good at it, and I have seen enough people trying to snowboard that I never really had the desire to try. Ya, I want a catch an edge and land straight on my face! We were going up to Wolf Mountain, which is a small mountain, and I was feeling adventurous. Plus, Tyson is learning to snowboard and Baylie was going to be skiing with Jill and Todd. Why not? It was actually a lot of fun. I wasn't ready for how completely different from skiing it is. I thought there would be some similarities, but there really isn't. Susan and I plan on going again soon so I can give it another try.

Yeah you did awesome! I wish I would have tried that day as well. Next time we go, k? I just think it would be so nice to actually be in comfortable boots. Don't get me wrong, I love skiing, but ski boots leave a lot to be desired. I was so jealous when I saw you, Susan, and Tyson putting on your nice comfy boots. Let us know when you want to go again. Thanks for a fun day!
