'Tis the season
Now it feels like Christmas. (Translation: I'm almost done shopping.)
I have seen the snow and even played in it. (Translation: I went snowboarding up at Baker with some friends from the UW.)
I feel quite popular. (Translation: It's good to have everyone back in town, even if it means more late nights at Haggen's.)
The Best Return of the Season award definitely goes to Adam Barhan. Adam and I were friends in middle school and then he moved to Tennessee. Currently he lives in Texas with his dad and works at a climbing gym. He;s back in town for two weeks visting his aunt and uncle. I think it's amazing that we didn't really have much in common when he left and now we have tons in common, even though we spent the last 6 years on opposite sides of the Rockies.
We both kayak, we both climb, we both worked at a climbing gym, he enjoy hiking, and we like to snowboard. So todaywe did something he just started doing and I have heard of but never done: we went geocaching. This is basically a worldwide game of treasure hunting with a GPS. Check it out at www.geocaching.com and type in your zip code to find out how many caches are near you.
It's looking to be a fun week. Seattle Art Museum tomorrow, shopping with my sisters on Wednesday, and lots of climbing inbetween. Oh yeah, and Christmas is SATURDAY!
Jolly Christmahanuwa nza,

Don't Kick The Baby! ha ha Whats up Rocky!?! I must say that the Christmahanukwanzaka commercial is one of my favorites! I like how you were all "I'm only going to write like once a week" and now you're writing all the time! he he.
Well the news is that I am coming over around the sixth and leaving somewhere around the 11th. That would also be the weekend that Beebs and company will be up at Frog's cabin. I know you have to go teach your kiddies how to ski but I really hope I get to see you!
So yes, you should try and find a way to get to mt baker k?!

went and saw the wonderful snow at baker, they should consider changing the name of the runs to rockey road! it was a good thing i had a rental. GI joes said there was 27$ in damage due to the rocks but then i had the pleasure of waving the awesome 3$ insurence in front of his face so for tons of rocks and a couple of rails 3$ was well worth it. but what would i know i am just a crazy texan Have a merry christmas and to all a good night
