Winter, blah

Is it spring yet?

No, seriously.

The skiing this winter has been ok, I'll grant that. But we haven't had any snow to speak of in the last few weeks (which means no back country, no cross country skiing.) And it's been either frigid, windy or raining cats and dogs. Not that I'm complaining or anything. I have had fun learning how to snowboard. And rip tele turns.

And ice climbing is cool and all, but it's just not my bag. I can understand why people like it. It's mentally challenging, it enables unique situations and perspectives, it's another tool in the mountain climber's box, blah blah blah. Ice climbing has its merits, I just prefer to crush the rock.

So, until the snow melts, all I can do is watch Pilgrimage...

Or...

Go to Kentucky. We'll see.
