    Did Canyons yesterday. Snow was great. Another great PC trip in the books.

    Looks like you timed it right.

    I really enjoy the area around the colony where the runs go under and over those bridges.  Great scenery and very peaceful.

    I'm the opposite.  If I'm in there I made a wrong turn (which is often).

    Finally bought the Blizzard Bonafide skis I’d been eyeing. Vail 2/20 can’t get here soon enough.

    I've got some Line Prophet 98s that I used to ski as my daily (and only) ski.  Great soft snow bias, but I always found it a chore to get them to hold an edge on hard-pack/skied-off/ice, etc.  Bought some 80mm waisted Nordicas (the upgraded Fire Arrow, GT 80 Ti or something) and I had a blast on those two weekends ago.  Not a pow ski by any stretch, but fun to carve on the groomers and did well thru the harbor chop.

    My point was that if you were going the store why was there debate about what to get?

     

    Well I suppose I could have picked up the cheap stuff; however, my experience with the "Fine, I'll do it myself" line is that there are some repercussions (unwarranted as they may be).  Just wanted to avoid that bullshit.

    I picked up standard stuff.  No arguments.  In fact, she has come to the realization that the whole natural food thing for the dogs (with the individually packaged meals) may not be best anyway.  Coincidentally, the company wanted $220 for the next month's supply and I opted out of that contribution.

    Wait. You are the one going to the store?

    I do the cooking.  She does the cleanup.  She can't cook for shit.  It's better this way, trust me.

    And making your own sandwiches?

    This she can do and does.

    Probably jerking himself off too. 

    This she can do and does; however, if you want it done right . . .

    Cheap peanut butter for the win. 

    Dog doesn't like peanut butter.  Go figure.  Dog is extremely adept at eating the delivery food and spitting out the pills.

  4. Oh boy.  The storm clouds of a fight are brewing.

    The Avatar is on some natural food kick for the dogs.  Bought some shit that comes in individual packets and needs to be frozen after x number of days.  Ok.  That’s her gig.  Go for it.

    My dog is on meds for a mast tumor issue (pretty much under control); however, she does get meds twice a day.  The preferred delivery method is wrapped in lunch meat.  The packaged stuff.  Same that I throw on my sandwich.

    So I am on my way to the store this morning and ask the Avatar if she needs anything.

    A:  We need lunch meat.

    M: What happened to all the turkey from the deli counter?

    A:  Used it for pills.

    M: Well if I am getting lunch meat for dogs, I’m getting the cheap budding stuff.

    A: No.  It has to be free range no hormones no additives grass fed (insert whatever additional criteria here)

    M:  ???? Just so I understand.  You want me to buy premium lunch meat for the dogs?

    A:  Fine.  I’ll do it myself.

    Big Cottonwood Canyon, represent!!!

    Snowbird is in Little Cottonwood.  I think that photo is actually looking back into Mineral Basin.  I could be wrong though.

    Got back in late Sunday.  Skiing was great - other than my boots feeling a little packed out.  We went to Ollie's, The Dredge, and a few other places around town.  Breakfast at the butterhorn was awesome.  

    The distillery was fun, but a little crowded.   Wound up at the medicine man and it was okay.

    Peak 6 was insanely fucking cold but a lot of fun.  Sadly I didn't see a dude with boobs in a Sun Devil shirt @Upgrayedd.

    Spent some time at Peak 6 on Friday.  Fun wind buff.  Was at Ollie’s in Frisco for a bit Saturday night.  Vail was fun on Sunday.  Traffic to the tunnel not so much fun.

  7. I make a pot of coffee for the Avatar and me every morning.  Every morning I take a cup, wait for the Avatar to take hers, then finish the pot (usually a full cup).  Everyday, same system.

    Except for this morning.  “You hog, you took all the coffee!”

    ”Wait, I saw you in there getting coffee.  Did I not make enough?”

    ”I used a smaller cup today.”

    ”How is that my fault?”

    ”You should have asked.”

    ”So ask 48,000 times in anticipation for that one day, today, where you would use a smaller cup?”
