Last Day at Stowe

i was in so much pain in the morning. Woke up at 7:59 am. Already missed the first bus to the mountain. Quickly got dressed and got some free food in the breakfast room. i was hurting, sore from the day before and hung over from all the booze i consumed. What a horrible combination of pain. But that wasn't about to stop me to rip it hardcore down the mountain. There wasn't that big a line when we got to the Quad lift. i thought the lift would never end...it was so windy that day. i was so cold i had to break out the face mask that i borrowed from rich...probably should get my own, they're key. i kind of look like a ninja, a snowboarding ninja with ninja snowboarding skills...

Manthan definitely doesn't look like a ninja, just a cold indian...lame.

Ugh, did i mention it was cold? Couldn't get the girls to come out again, which was probably better...then we could go as fast as we wanted. My legs were really sore, but after two runs down Toll House while mixing in some other trails...we got some food at the base. Also to let our legs rest. The prices were pretty ridiculous, 8 bones for a burger...but it was so delicious. Should have taken a picture, much better than that lame In-N-Out joint.

We soon headed back up the mountain. Not sure what was manthan's deal but he fell a lot, way more than usual. Probably the effects of being extremely tired. i missed it but he told me he tried to hit some powder and didn't get back on the trail in time and hit a rock...scraped up his jacket, ripped his pant leg, and sprained his finger...silly manthan. Could have been much worse though.

Go big or go home, we ditched the trail and jumped in the woods for the first time. Might not have been the smartest idea...i could barley squeeze between some of the trees. But it was fun, when i wasn't running into trees...
About half way through this run we looked at the time and it was 1:15 pm...the bus was going to be at the base at 1:30...what the driver didn't tell us was that he was leaving at 2pm. So we took some faster trails and got at the bus at 1:30 exactly...turned out we could have gotten run in, but might not have been able to walk afterwards so i wasn't too bummed out. We waited until 2pm thinking there were other people coming but there weren't.

Rushed to the room and packed to get on the bus back home. i missed the group photo :'(. Pretty sure i missed the group photo last year too...lemon. i wanted to get on the bus early so i could get seat that wasn't not behind the couple dry humping each other...but i was the second to last person on the bus and the only seat left was...right behind the grinding horny couple...ugh. As soon as a seat opened up i was out of there.

On the way back we watched like 4 movies on the bus. Pretty ridiculous...like a movie marathon. We stopped for dinner, i got Roy Rogers again...this time it was good unlike the Mount Snow trip. The buns on my burger and chicken gold rush sandwich were edible. Didn't get back to my car until 11:30pm, said good bye and honked my horn and headed home. Though i wasn't able to sleep in the next morning...had to drive manthan to his school at 7am the next morning...ugh, can't get a break.
