Distributed by Smashing MagazineI made my stab at snowboarding over the weekend. Our friend Megan was nice enough to loan me her gear while she learns to telemark ski, so that was very helpful. However, just having gear doesn’t guarantee anything! We went to Loveland Ski Area, and I took a lesson while Joel snowboarded. The lesson was [...]
Last weekend, Adam came to visit. Somewhat similar to when mom came, he brought terribly cold weather with him. And I mean terrible…it was the coldest we’ve ever felt in our lives. I think -10 was the lowest we saw! We made the most of it and still did everything we wanted to, but it [...]
