Hardrocker

Typical roller-coaster weather from sunny in the teens to complete schlep on Wednesday (this shot was Thursday part way thru the melt) to presently blowing & snowing again. So I took the opportunity to try out a new preset for Lightroom, this one called 'Hardrocker'. Ironic name since I went from that to talking about the weather...

Musha rain dum a doo, dum a da
Musha (snow) dum a doo, dum a da, hey
Musha (ice) dum a doo, dum a da
Musha (schlep) dum a doo, dum a da, yeah

Hang Time


April 15, 2009 trip up to Sunshine with Eric and a friend. Now that basketball is over Eric is a little more aggressive on the slopes & is willing to play in the terrain parks. I'll just shoot thanks... my landings haven't gotten any smoother with age. I just hit the small ones, this one was labelled 'large'.

Coordinated this trip with a couple people from Clubtread along with a few extras. It was a workout but worth it for the views & working out some kinks from generally sitting too much.
