I got a new board. A Rome blue 155. What is a better way to break it in then a hike up Tallac.

It was RIDICULOUSLY warm yesterday in Tahoe. Needed to get out before all the snow melted into the lake.

here's mt. tallac. the pics we took from a distance didn't turn out that good. so i stole this one.


Starting out on the hike:




the sexy new board

sick of being referred to as mr. amy, eh?

better than the hike was gorging on ridiculous amounts of greasy chinese food afterwards. ok, maybe not.

Ha Ha! Yesterday, Noah and I, went to this indoor water park and then did the same thing afterwards! I couldn't wait to get that first forkful of food into my mouth I was so hungry, but when I was done what had seemed like a good idea in the beginning, didn't seem like such a good idea!

Waterpark was cool, but 74 steps to the top and we did it 17 times. After skiing hard on Sat....I knew that 17th time was the last time I was making it up the steps!

Now back on topic....what were talking about, chineses food?

Nice pics BTW!

thanks. tallac is so pretty that it's hard to take a bad picture of the area.

we do chinese buffet a couple times a year. reserved for those times when we're so physically exhausted. it sounded like the best idea in the world until i started eating. then i had a belly full of heaviness.

water park sounds like alot of fun. i could totally go for that right now.

Yeah, I guess the inter-web people can find out my real name... our friends get real names.

i think i will have to do at least 10,000 vert of climbing before chinese buffet again.

just thinking of the fried honey shrimp makes my belly hurt

*IF* we do tallac again this year we'll just get burgers afterwards. but it may never snow again.
