snowboarding hooky!

went up to sugar bowl in tahoe for the day for some secret snowboarding! there was absolutely no traffic, so we got up there in three hours and were on the slopes by 9am. it was an absolutely perfect day, sunny without wind, and even though it hadn’t snowed since sunday, the snow was groomed and really good, and not icy at all. we had a lot of fun, and it was good to get a day in before the new year. we were up there until about 2:30pm, and then decided to call it a day. well, strictly speaking, my thighs and calves decided to call it a day. we would have beat all the traffic home, but then got caught in the traffic from that terrible car burning tragedy, which forced us to double back and drive around the bay and come down through marin.
