Sherm and Shazza’s Photos
This post and the one below are going to keep growing while I work through all the stuff we got. I’m not sure when I’m going to get it all done since Richard arrives tomorrow and AJ has 2 weeks off. Owww – man skiing…. This is what town looked like when Shazza left for hospital…. This is what town looked like when he … Continue reading Sherm and Shazza’s Photos
Sherm and Shazza’s Movie’s
Sherm and Shazza are over – you couldn’t tell since Shazza has spent a bunch of time in Invercargill under the knife. I told the ambo drivers he was in for a circumsizion and I hope they didn’t take me seriously (I don’t have a suit appropriate for a Bar Mitzvah). (Note – every image in this post is a link to the movie. They … Continue reading Sherm and Shazza’s Movie’s
Man Skiing
This winter I had planned for some Man Skiing – I’ve mentioned this phrase before and it has nothing to do with men or women – it just means ‘serious skiing’ – women can do it too (yes I’m talking about you LD – although you are a girl at heart). So far this winter I have been well behaved – to tell the truth … Continue reading Man Skiing
Snow – lots of snow!!!
This was the view walking out the front door yesterday. Skiing was on the cards… But last week Concrete was closed because they didn’t have snow… today they are closed because they have snow…. YOU CAN’T FIX STUPID!!!! We try our best to get around it though – instead of skiing fresh pow- Lisa Doris joined the boys for a day out and since AJ and I were … Continue reading Snow – lots of snow!!!
First Real Mission of the Winter
Doug from Keystone told me about some natural hot springs in a valley on the west coast about 5 months ago. Since then I’ve been doing some research and when I landed here 5 weeks ago I was keen as mustard to give it a touch up. However, the west coast gets 17m of rain a year (if it fell as snow that would be … Continue reading First Real Mission of the Winter
Vegas + Tom = BFF (Best Friends Forever)
It has been a couple of weeks since I was in Vegas and I have been asked a bit about those few days and I’ve been rather cagey. Although it was only a short relationship, I felt that I needed some time to get my head around what Vegas and I really had during that time. Until 2am each evening I was hanging out with … Continue reading Vegas + Tom = BFF (Best Friends Forever)
Golf
Back on the course a little bit (5 rounds of golf in the last 7 days counts as a little bit right?). Thought I’d take some pics of the course for their website and here are a couple of them. Continue reading Golf
Day One
I’ve been back in NZ now for a week – lots of hiking, lots of golf, lots of Bundy OP, lots of card playing and a little bit of work. And now some skiing….. AJ, Lisa from across the road and I decided to boot pack Coronet Peak today and get in some turns. A wee bit of a walk but if we didn’t do that we’d … Continue reading Day One
Doris’s Of ’07/’08 Winter
I started this idea at the end of last winter – check out the Doris’s of the ’07 Southern Winter. It is a bit of a giggle – it makes me look terrible as the Doris’s all look fantastic – and that is particularly so this last northern winter. To kick this off – or as they say at the ice hockey… we’ll puck things off with Lisa Doris … Continue reading Doris’s Of ’07/’08 Winter
More ‘Party Time’
Just got home from a shin-dig at Al and Jarisse’s “cabin”. This leads me into the first pic of this post – I lent the Jeep to Californian Doris and Al had lent me the Beater Beamer… again. The passenger door doesn’t work so here is Daisy Duke (aka Little Spoon) getting herself out of the window for the inaugural run down the backside of Loveland … Continue reading More ‘Party Time’
Party Time!!!
Spring is well and truly here – soft snow and bikinis at the Basin. Unfortunately the following pics are just my fat arse – no bikini’s I promise. I’m testing me new skis – they seem pretty aerodynamic to me….. Wilson from Tennessee arrived today. A beer in the A-Basin carpark is compulsory – it is only 2 minutes up the road from my place and … Continue reading Party Time!!!
Call me Cliff
You guys know this is going to be a big post – this is day 2. More cliffs to open things up. Me showing lots of confidence going into the Montezuma Cliffs. I won’t talk smack about how high this is – you’ll just have to come over and see it for yourself. Little Spoon has been working his mojo on this cute little Texan … Continue reading Call me Cliff
