Way too Long Grooming Report:

I had a whole series of surf pictures along with blather regarding cool(?) stuff I found in the junk drawer that would have been really interesting(?) but it all pales now in light of the Bully run.  I had an inkling but didn’t want to jinx it.  You know, its like the time you really wanted something for Christmas or some such self centered situation when mom/dad slipped in some comment or question that gave pause.  So, I had just told Lori about my wonderful ski to 510 on Sunday when she asked about the snow pack on the bridges.  Hmmm, I can only think of one real reason she would actually need to know that information but I bit my tongue for fear of tempting fate.  After all, everyone knew the Piston Bully had been put down for a long summer’s nap.  Bringing it back out would be very expensive.  However, look at the six day forecast; cold clear nights and days near or even below freezing. This was a strong move;   Enjoy.
