Hey All...

It has been a long time since I have posted here. I have stopped in when I have had time. I am glad everyone is doing well. I am about to get my first day of the season in tomorrow at Alpine Meadows. Gotta love sick days ;) I cannot f#cking wait! Life has been to crazy between work and my pending marriage to get to the mountain this season. Has anyone heard from Pinky or Capm? I am tempted to stop by the sac brewery to see if Capm is around. Anyway, I'll get some turns in for ya all tomorrow.

I hope to get another sick day in soon :) I have some pics but they are to f'ing large to upload. Looks like I need to bust out my useless photoshop skills ;)

Yup, I'm still around. Just mostly lurking now and then when my work schedule permits. Been doing the domestic thing the past year or two. I got married last June, we moved into our new house in Oct. Maybe you'll beat my whopping two day season that ended the day after it started. That was back in January. That was when I could still fit into my boarding pants. Now my belly is too big :) Hopefully by osmosis, those two days of riding will help create the next generation's future half pipe champ. But we won't know for sure for at least a couple of more years. Right now it feels as if I'm harboring an up and coming soccer star.

Congrat's on the full belly... Awesome news... Definitely embraced the domestic roll 100%, didn't you? Makes for a reasonable excuse for such a short season...

Or something like that.

Congrats! PinkyJ and the Pinkette(s) -- I hope the baby is a girl -- you'll have the makings of a girl-group right there.

Well we know we're having a boy. He's due at the end of June.

It was just my luck that one of the best seasons since I started boarding is the year that I have to sit back and watch the eastern sierra stay white. Just over the past several days most resorts are reporting 6-24 inches. Chains or snows have been required over Mt Rose and by Kirkwood. Oh well, I guess my luck could be worse (Mark, hang in there).

Keep posting all those great pics. I'm living vicariously these days.

If all you guys that just got/are planning on getting married have kids anytime soon, we'll have to start a SBR jr. site ;)

Thanks again,
jerel

Jerel,

seems like everytime I hear or see you, something big in your life is happening, I remember and I hope you do to! The time I meet you, your sister and mom at Hood , by the way does your mom still ride? I guess now I should be asking does grand ma board? tee hee.... Then after that I saw you in SacTown and had the privledge to meet the future Mr. PJ..... remember hearing about you getting your Pharmacy Lisc. and now the storks going to be paying a visit.... Wow... how cool is that....

By the way my neighbor Vanessa who used to work with you in Sac Town says Hi!

I don't know if you remember me mentioning that I had a kid a few years back, that was when I could slip away and ride alot, thats all changed now! I now have two boys, Sean who is now 6 yrs old & Ryan is 8 mo's old . Sean is playing T-Ball, I help by being an assit.coach, leaves me with little time for boarding since the games are on Sat and I have my hands full baby sitting.... I too must pull a Sick day like snafu to ride the goods. I guess we'll have to start the jr SBR site for sure...
Again Congratulations on starting a family!

Rich

You should drop the kids off at the pool, then go shredding.

Congrats Jerel. Things have been really jumping for you over the last couple of years. Hope you have continued success in the various facets of your life. Be sure to show us some pics after the big day!

in fact I took it easy riding with her the two days I went in January. So she gets 3-4 days in a year. It will be weird having 3 generations out on the slopes one day in several years or so. You need to get your kids into boarding, then all of you can go together - put them in a lesson and go have some fun yourself on the more challenging terrain.
