Sir, don't worry about it.

Shovelling snow... I don't envy you. Sunshine over here, and most of the snow melted away. But you know Bavaria, there is more to come before winter is over...

Only two or three inches...and it fell in below zero temps, so it was light and fluffy...makes me want to go ski...but then again, there's that whole lift ticket issue (around $75 per day)...could have been much worse...could have been Sierra cement...that stuff is wetter and heavier than the snow that fell in Toelz...much heavier...

The lift ticket issue is what kept me from going skiing this year. And it got worse with the unexperienced Dutch skiers running us over. If you see the Autobahn with all the cars from the Netherlands one must think it's a country with 350 million people...

I hear you on the heavy snow. Gotta hate it...

Bought telemark skis...haven't used them in a couple of years...I swear, I'll get out this winter...LOL...I shovel snow every few hours during big storms...I know guys that wait until it quits, saying they only want to shovel one...I shovel four times, fifteen minutes a whack...they shovel once...with two or three breaks...and it takes an hour or more...there is no saving effort when it comes to snow shoveling./

Somehow I'm glad that the janitor is doing the shovelling part for me...

Well, winter ain't over here in Bavaria. Maybe I get a half-day pass for me and the HH6 and get the skies out. I blew most of the cash for our tickets to the US of A in october....

Actually the price aren't bad at all...

Season passes for the Brauneck start at €320 to €410. No discounts apply...

I think I get me a day-pass for €29 (€26 for senior citizens, but I'm 21 years short of that... LOL).

Enjoy the skiing in beautiful Colorado! I have some friends on the Aspen and Carbondale PD, they told me skiing in the Rockies is something else. Too bad I've been there in summertime. On the other hand, I got to hang out with Razor in the Suffern' Bastarads Tavern in the Springs and see a Rockies game in Denver with Firebeef.

The price is free to telemark up the Brauneck and then ski down it.. and repeat..

It was a challenge finding Tony Hernandez' cross on the back side with the snow in Oct. But we found it nonetheless.

Stras...myself and a cpl other guys just posted a few good pics of Tony's memorial site. They've relocated the cross since we were there, well, since I was there at least. "SF Brothers" page in facebook, if you arent in there yet. Its a "private" group

FB

I know FB is really attractive but the security issues and potential for identify fraud are extreme.

Hmm, somehow I prefer the skilift....

As for FB, it's all a matter of how much information you give up there. Some people post everything about their lifes, and don't even have their privacy settings right...
