Good winter flying here in Golden just got signed off on my tenth flight so now I can fly any time. Had some good days with some thermals, great sight with alot of characters. Great to be under canopy again. Flying is an amazing feeling and release. To be in tune with the air and weather and to be able to leave the ground behind with nothing but the wind in your ears. Parke is in the thick of school but we still find time to get some turns in, and have been hitting up the nordic with head lamps, dogs, and friends. The trailer got back out on the road this weekend. berthoud, and breckenridge. Driving main in Breck with camper smoking felt like our own parade as people pointed and laughed and waved us on.

January 5 2010
Crew of old timers in the Weminuche Hilton. We set out for 6 weeks to Brazil and Argentina and had an amazing time spending the majority of it in patagonia. The weather down there was burly and we lucked out and had some awsome blue bird days between snow storms. It was so windy at times you lost rack of your own thoughts, we had one day where we could lean into the wind and walk up on verticle rocks, felt like sky diving. After the trip we had some good skiing in the san juans and Silverton and went to the treasure mountain hut with owner stan and friend Aneka. North to Jackson to visit the old stomping grounds with the trailer and found some good snow. Slept in just about every parking lot in Wilson. What a wonderful fall to start out our marriage!

Parke and Ryan went up the hill to shred some blue bird powder.
Ryan got down and Parke said yes and they skied the mountain together.
