Snowboarding

In California

One feeling that was absolutely reinforced with blazing clarity by traveling was how much I actually love living in San Francisco. Here are my friends, topography, water and within 5 hours of [nearly] every climate. I’ve tried to take advantage of that in the three days I’ve been back, enjoying the Pacific coast via motorcycle as well as the Sierra Nevada via snowboard—with a dozen friends. Moments include excellent baggage claim, eating turns and Hoth stormtrooper action in Kirkwood.

Also, good food. Oi. Tip hat to Sue, Vadan, Lex and whoever created Hyphy.
