Old Dog, New Tricks, Sort of

Today I took a lesson and attempted to snowboard for the first time. To be sure, I’m hurting as I sit here and type this, and it was a real chore to try to learn how to do something so unnatural as boarding.

To be fair, I’ve skied for longer than I can remember so I’m used to not falling down all the time. I’m also not accustomed to sitting in the middle of a trail, waiting to get hit, yet after my lesson and some further practice, this is something that boarders are taught to do.

I think I’ll keep to my skiing, thank you very much.  Oh, and traffic on the way home was the worst its been all year.  It took nearly 2 hours more to get home, thanks to the snow, rain, and my favorite, California’s best drivers.
