Denver, Colorado To San Francisco

On Saturday night my body was twitching from a caffeine overdose and I couldn't concentrate long enough to move one foot in front of the other. My body, deprived of nourishing food and kept alive on caffeine, shut down about 10pm. My brain died quickly thereafter.
Fortunately my wonderful host, Tony, had a quick fix. A free pass, gear and board to the Mary Jane snow park at Winter Park. I went to bed early (well 1am) and woke up early (yes.. 8am is early in my book). The drive to Mary Jane only took about 1 1/2 hours with several stops.
We arrived at the park around noon and rode until our (at least my) legs gave out; which was about an hour later (ok, ok 5pm).
It was the first time that I had been on a snowboard in almost 2 years! I definitely needed the break. The video, shot on my cell phone, is Tony pulling some fattie air! (ya.. like I'm totally a rad snowboarder dude n' stuff)
My only regret for the day was unintentionally ditching Ann. We had loosely-defined plans for visiting some nearby hotsprings. Sorry Ann!!
Which brings up my new side project (I need more time for side projects).

Bare bones at the moment but I have plans and I'm working on some Drupal modules to add tons of functionality (well maybe not tons). If you're a hot springs/nature fan and want to help build out a simple website geared towards a niche group of "hot springers" send me an email!
In other news. I'm in San Francisco now. I flew out this morning at 11am and arrive at 1pm PST. Feels good to say PST vs. EST. I love the west coast, its a completely different vibe out here.
Don't get me wrong though, the east coast definitely has it highlights but the vibe on the west is completely different.
like fer'shure n' stuff, dude!
