Best job in the mountains
19 February 2007
I'm working with people who's average age has to be around 28 or so.
I got 3 weeks paid vacation without even working a second at Big Stone. This is actually bigger than life with the wedding and honeymoon just around the corner.
And finally, I didn't have to work today. We get the day off to celebrate Washington's birthday. That's right, I got President's day off and I don't work for USPS or a bank!
So what did I do on my day off? I headed to the slopes for the first time that I was out here. I graduated my way through ski school and was off hitting the mountain like a pro ... until I decided to move from Green to Blue routes. Man, you wouldn't think there would be much of a difference, but there sure is. I wiped out so hard once that I had snow up by my shoulder blades and half way down my pants. Either way, it was worth it and it was really fun.
Oh yeah, Christi's job rock's too because they gave me a free lift ticket to go have fun today!
