Picked up a new sign for the living room. These things are so expensive in stores, MK found this at a garage sale for 20$!

Loving these late storms, today was beautiful! We skied Alta.

Living here goes by fast. I promised Ski Utah I’d try things other than skiing – so far I’ve gotten up one hill with snow shoes on. Barely counts! Every morning I wake up and I’m pulled to another mountain, another challenge on my skis. Then you blink and the winter is over.
I was over hereĀ http://www.ginabegin.com/
and then found this:
http://mountainenthusiast.com/2011/02/17/top-10-best-things-to-do-and-see-in-utah/
A list of things to do. While I’ve tried most of the beers and all of the honorable mentions, I thought it was pretty funny skiing was the only thing I’d done on that list.
MY QUESTION TO YOU:
what is something from your HOME state that is sitting right there waiting for you to do that you haven’t?
Hanging out on the neighbors play scape before this week of storms!

It’s a little funny to fight with MH about just how excited we are for winter. He used to be a ski instructor, but he doesn’t live for the winter here – he has a real job! We aren’t those people that pray for snow, but let me tell you about my weekend:
So as you can see, I’m kind of a junkie now. And I’m tweeting it – in case you didn’t see the picture, all my hard snow dance work paid off and it snowed overnight. Everyone in Park City is talking about it – except MH. I’ll keep working on him.
Sitting around here is a bunch of my thoughts and life stories I’d chosen to share with my family and friends. If you google “pumpkin” you might find my Halloween post and glance at it, but I never worried whether or not you’d come back.
This new ‘job’ of mine will only be a success if you find me and are struck by my wit and banter so much so that you come back over and over, increasing the traffic to the site. At least, that’s how I’d measure my success. Not sure if the metrics over there will even tell them it’s my hard work increasing site traffic. I have a few skit and post ideas I’m really excited about executing over the winter, and hope humor and my concept of ‘skiing for the average masses’ connects with readers and helps promote skiing in Utah.
I’m supposed to start with an about me, where I plan to stress that this skiing thing seemed totally inaccessible to me not all that long ago, and then BAM!, here I am now, writing to others to tell them how to break the wall of ‘brosef’ and let skiing come to them in a whole new way.
What I’m wondering is if I’ll see just how effective a blog can be to media and marketing. Why would anyone go to that site? Well, the weather reporting is the bomb. To me, if you live here or have internet access while you’re here skiing, the site tells you where you should be that morning. And that’s valuable. I hope to produce content that makes you just want to hear from me, I think that’s all I can do. Any one else think there’s more to it? Let me know…
