I have spoken to Riley a few times since he and Katrina landed in California, and it’s clear they’re gradually becoming comfortable in their new home. They are renting a great apartment in the ‘nice part’ of San Pedro, and Riley is loving the spacious floor plan (lots of rehabilitative laps in his chair) and [...]
Well we made it! Tomorrow will mark two weeks since our arrival in CA and time is flying, as it seems to do these days. I meant to check in on the blog sooner but getting settled has taken a little while. We are still not fully settled in by any means but everyday we [...]
Throughout this injury the one thing that has really kept me moving in the right direction is my friends. I must say I am blessed to have so many amazing ones! The notes, cards, calls and energy I have recieved from all of you has been a huge inspiration for me and makes it really [...]

I think I speak for everyone when I say that Saturday’s events were a huge success. Two events. One purpose. Old friends. New friends… And more fun than you could shake a ski pole at. Thank you to everyone involved.

So Monster really took whistler to a whole new level this year. Combining the Tellus Festival and the Grenade Games into one big shit show. The Danny and Dingo show were in town as well just trying to steal the scene, but can anyone really take that from skiers. A lot of [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/1886-extcpy/0p4190007.jpg[/IMG]
After that fabulous hungover breakfast we all had back at the hotel we headed to the dumonts for Easter. I dont think that anyone realized that Frances Dumont had bought 1000 dollars of ammunition for us to shoot of his porch at whatever we felt needed to be shot. There were so many [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/1719-extcpy/0p4110036_2.jpg[/IMG]
So all the boys headed straight from JOSS to Maine for the first ever Dumont Cup. It is the best event i have been to all year, so much fun.

So Tom Wallasch won, and was ready to spend [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/1717-extcpy/0p41100011.jpg[/IMG]

So I met up with all of the JOSS teams here in Norway, and all they could say is how much Norway sucked. I had a great time there, but I have fun everywhere that my friends are. So i spent two days watching the boys shred on the features which was fun [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/1484-extcpy/0p3240002-300x225.jpg[/IMG]
So as usual I get super unlucky with my flights over seas and always get screwed. You would think that i would have this traveling thing dialed by now, but I don’t think i will ever get it figured out. I show up to the airport in Denver ready to go but they [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/1402-extcpy/0p3200020-225x300.jpg[/IMG]
