So that has been a good few weeks since I last wrote… Whoops

So since the last time…

Mum and Dad have been out for two weeks and had a great time - so much so that they didn’t want to leave, the folks and I went Dog sledding - I rolled the dog sled, We went snowmobiling - I rolled the snow mobile - well not so much rolled, as got it to jump over the track we were meant to be riding down. Will said it looked awesome so at least that was something - I did however hurt one knees and the other thigh - as they say shit happens! We had a squash tournament at Anna‘s house, Had a great match between Buzz and Myself. The tournament was won by Joe - who appeared to be rather good at the whole squash thing - Damn Him! Monday last week, the mountain at Lake Louise was closed due to high winds. It was blowing at 100 Kph at mid mountain and about 150Kph at top of the world. We did two runs, once the one and only lift was opened - which were horrible, basically ice, stopped for lunch and then had some beers and got the first bus home.

Also had a small thing last week - just the matter of the level 2

But you don’t want to know how that went do you…

So this week we don’t have any worries as the level 2 is now over. We still have Daron but it should be an awesome week of crazy-ness! Hopefully I’ll get some good video footage of rock drops and stuff.

Okay so I can’t think of anything else to pack this out with so I’m just going to have to say that the level 2 was a good week. Days one to three where good fun. After the rubbish conditions on Monday, Tuesday had lots of fresh and we had a really good day which managed to settle our nerves. It remained like this until Friday when the nerves returned. Managed to overcome them though - Yes, Yes I am now a Professional Athlete of the second level. Hoo-rah!
Unfortunately we didn’t all pass. Will was taken out by an out of control boarder, which shook us all up not mention him. He was taken to hospital on a back board but after some pain killer and muscle relaxants appears to be a hell of a lot better now. Laura and Martin passed their teaching but not their riding and Nick passed his riding but not his teaching - they all get to retake the half they haven’t passed next week. So we all went out to celebrate Friday night… and Saturday morning, which brings us to know really - Sunday afternoon, lying on my bed typing this out thinking about food - that will do for now.

Take it easy
Peace

sup everybody
so its been a good week - absolutely knackered. Daron has really been pushing us to improve our riding. Its feeling a lot more solid than it has done.

So the folks arrived safely on Sunday evening and they have had a good week - its good to see them.

Monday night I went to Wild Bills - the same place as we did the line dancing, to see the godfather of Hip-Hop - DJ Jazzy Jeff. It was an amazing evening - he is an even better DJ than I thought and I knew he was very good! - the Host was a guy who was called Skills - apparently he is set to be the next big thing - if you get a chance check him out.


the other big thing this week is that we have finally moved out of the crack shack into a hotel. Its on the outside of Banff - so it of a bit of hike but it does have a swimming pool, hot tub, sauna and there is only two of us in each room, and we each have a double bed - and the best thing is its not the old place!

we went out for a bit of a session yesterday evening after I had Japanese with the folks and turned into quite a big night. we were in the Irish pub and I saw this picture - made us laugh...


till next time

Peace
