Breckenridge!

I am the first to admit that I'm a warm weather person and I generally hate the cold and snow.  This could stem from spending the first 17 years of my life in snowy central New York.  I don't even love snowboarding the way I used to and tend to avoid the snow and mountains at all cost.  However a recent trip to Breckenridge for work renewed my love of snow (though not of cold).  It being a work trip I was only able to get a whopping three runs in over four days.  However those 3 runs (on my new Signal board) made me once again love snowboarding. It helps that a beautiful, fluffy perfect snow was falling and it was one of those silent days on the snow. Some crappy cell phone photos of the trip:

Golden, Colorado: Clark Griswald's retirement home
 Next stop Snowbasin, Utah for the Winter Dew Tour championships and I'm actually looking forward to it! However I am still a girl meant to live in tropical heat and that will never change. I'll take 85 degree humidity any day.
