February, Season Extender


I haven't posted much lately.  I have no idea why.  NO motivation to do so, honestly. Stuck in a snowdrift perhaps... 


We've had a few breaks in the ice storms, freezing temps and mega snowfall (normal pass weather finally!) and have been out and about around the neighborhood.  Though last week we had over 3 feet of snow in about 4 days, another highway closure, and a small dose of cabin fever. Mae and I have been enjoying our outings.  It's so pretty!! And it will extend the snowboard/ski season!  Hooray!

I finished the '30 day Yoga Challenge with Adriene'...it did take me 43 days, but I did it and am now completely sold on yoga.  What about you??

Two songs on my mp3 player, on repeat:

I am a Rock  Give it a listen...."I have my books, and my poetry to protect me"
I never noticed what a dark song it really is.  But I LOVE it.

And the Jerry Douglas, Mumford & Sons cover of The Boxer .  It's simply fabulous.  

And your February??  How is it?  Possibly no one is enjoying it as much as Mae.

One More Silver Dollar

Well, the folks on Sirius radio keep telling me that it's International Guitar Player month.  So I thought I would take this opportunity to tell you how much I LOVE Gregg Allman and share this absolutely fabulous video that I stumbled across while spending too much time on YouTube.  It's one of those performances that gave me goosebumps.  And Vince Gill?  damn.  of course ZB is no slouch either.  Give it a listen, and tell me, do you have a favorite guitar player? Yes, I know, who can pick just one.

Monday Things 3/23/15

Well, we are all getting over our complaining about the mountain being closed, though some grumbling remains.  The employees are getting the shaft, being laid off, having their health care coverage changed, unsure of their futures here on the mountain.  And while the ski area made good on it's promise to give pass holders a discount on next year's pass (80%, very substantial), it grieves me to see so many people in the industry slapped by mother nature.  I really hope this isn't a trend and that next year we go back to "normal".

In the mean time....here we are.  

A week or so ago I heard this song, Killin' Time,  a Diamond Rugs tune, and it's been stuck with me since.  I really like the music, but I grasped on to the entire concept of how often we are just killing time. For me it's: Killin' time, drinking lots of coffee.  Killin' time, filing my nails.  Killin' time, sorting through my emails, killin' time, thinking 'bout the summer.  Killin' time, wishing I was somewhere....sigh.  What's your song ?  How much killing time do you do? 

Anyway, happy spring! I hope it's truly a fabulous season for you.  Here's a random cute photo of my daughter's beautiful adopted cat, Luna.  Have a great Monday~
