I'm Dreaming of a White...

...Birthday! It came a little early this year (not like it needed to). If I could have a present like this each year, then bring on more birthdays, early and often. Following her normal modus operandi (generous and loving), Amy got me the best present a skier could ever want — Heli-skiing at Whistler.

This is my second time and conditions were perfect. While not deep powder, the snow was soft and plentiful on a bluebird day. The POV video gives you a feel for the "heli" experience — heli–good!

Snow Driving in Duvall

It's been a week filled with snow, sleet, freezing rain, ice, power outages and many days working from home (and now rain and flooding can't be too far behind). On one of the few days we ventured out, I filmed our ride home to show that we actually do get snow in the winter in lowlands...and can drive in it. ATD
