Winter Recap

Although I am sitting here working mid-mountain at Arapahoe Basin with it finally snowing outside, I think the winter is officially over for me. I will get a couple hour ride break, but the car is packed and at 4pm I clock out and Dave Fusilli and I will start the fun cross country drive to the east coast. After spending a couple of days visiting the family, we will roll down to Asheville, NC and start the summer paddling road trip. Plenty of kayaking photos will follow because that is probably what you are wanting to see if you are looking at a kayaking blog, but for now here are some pictures from my 08/09 winter season. Here in Summit County it was not a season with epic snowfall, but everyday cannot be a cliff-dropping powder day, so we found plenty of other adventures to entertain ourselves.

Jahvee and Dave doing snowmobile shuttling on Cottonwood Pass
Early season while most resorts only had a handful of runs open we spent a beautiful day here snowboarding powder.

Dave scouting where to set up camp near Agate Creek on Monarch Pass.

Dave digging a tent pit at our campspot for the night.
I wish we had video footage of us trying to avoid constant post-holing by waddling around on our cross country skiis to gather firewood, etc.


Thanks to being surrounded by plenty of dead wood, here is our campfire, which without would have led to a longer, colder night.

Sunset Ridge, Crested Butte


Maia and Dave cross country skiing up Cottonwood Pass.
Maia is founder of an outdoor advenure company based out of NYC. Check out the website http://www.urbanescapesnyc.com/. It's pretty impressive to see what she has put together in less than a year.

Dave emerging from our camp spot on Cottonwood Pass into 8" of fresh snow. It might look like he is coming out of a rabbit hole, but it's a pretty cool spot inside. We at like kings and I spent most of the night trying to figure out how to keep cool.

Big smile!
There is my winter in short.
Wear your kayaking thick skins to keep you warm in the snow, but try to wash them a couple of times prior or else you will smell like a dirty kayaker and that certainly is NOT steezy.

現在來談談
台中搬家公司的未來展望,買新房子想從北屯搬到台中七期,當然要找台中搬家公司來執行台中搬家,明年台中縣市就要合併升格,到時候就無所謂台中縣搬家公司了,就只剩下台中市搬家公司。一搬來說大台中地區包括台中縣市,也包含彰化及南投,所以網路上找中部地區搬家公司,就會用南投搬家公司或者彰化搬家公司


再來談行的問題,景氣不是很好很多人買不起新車只好買中古車囉!中古車買賣是需要技巧的,胡亂買中古車可能會吃大虧的,消費者可要睜大眼睛看清楚,免得買了後悔不已。如果買新車的話,就沒有剛剛的問題,新車業務員在交車時一般都會幫車主貼隔熱紙,就是我們所說的汽車隔熱紙,不過他們貼的隔熱紙品質都不是挺好的,相信很多車主有許多不愉快經驗吧!有了車之後免不了要學開車吧!一般學開車是要到駕訓班,當然也可以叫做汽車駕訓班,聽說學費不便宜喔!還是省一點好,不要亂花錢。

經濟不景氣,討論借錢的話題很多人應開有興趣,在台北想借錢或者汽車借款可以到台北當舖或者是台北市當舖台北縣當舖當然也可以,如果是住在台北火車站到台北市當舖借錢比較方便。那我住在內湖就可以到內湖區當舖借錢融資囉!住在東區就找信義區當舖借錢,以此類推。一般支票貼現也有辦理,銀行有辦理票貼當舖也有阿,而且比銀行更方便,利息雖然高一點不過時效性卻非常好,一般工商人士短期借款就很喜歡到當舖的原因。我家現在住在桃園想融資票貼就得到桃園當舖,方便的桃園借錢真的幫到我了,桃園汽車借錢也非常有名,很多人都需要協助。住新竹的人往新竹當舖借貸是比較方便。來到台中手頭不方便,想週轉借貸一下台中當舖是有這樣的服務,報紙或者網路上隨時都可以查到台中
縣當舖
的資訊,因為台中當舖是非常有名的,服務也相當好。往台灣南部走先碰到的是嘉義當舖,借錢票貼一樣容易,聽說嘉義還蠻好玩的,火雞肉飯不錯吃喔!再往南走將會遇到高雄當舖,高雄人是很熱情的,借錢當然也不囉唆,依據話就搞定。鳳山再過一點點就到達台灣最南邊的屏東,一樣有屏東當舖可以服務缺錢的人,住在台灣真方便,哪裡都可以週轉融資。

有錢之後男人花樣變多了,想輕鬆一下,台中大大有名的就是台中護膚台中指油壓,不去體驗一下怎麼可以呢!食色性也這是孔老夫子講的,想找一些網路上情色消遣,只要關鍵字打上一夜情,視訊聊天,免費視訊聊天,免費視訊,視訊交友,情色貼圖,讓你看的眼花撩亂,爽快不已,E時代就是這麼方便,彈指可取情色
資訊。找女朋友到motel去休息,要挑好一點有情趣的汽車旅館,這種錢是一定不能省的,燈光美氣氛佳才能辦好事。

身體要強、要勇,買花旗蔘來補身一定有用,不過要用加拿大來的西洋蔘功效比較好,不信可以問一下專家的意見,相信他所給的答案就是粉光蔘。
