Oh hey look Elm Creek is making snow

Yup for real. So no more Trollhaugen (no offense to them but Trollhaugen sucks). So we might have skiing close-ish by come Thursday or so. And if that is the case, we will make a beeline.

4:45 until then, see you there but not Monday.

SKIING FRIDAY

depart 5:45 a.m., back by 9:40. Yeah, it's fake snow. But it's real skiing!

Email ari with questions.

Otherwise, 4:45 every day this week. Speed tomorrow!

November cometh

Several things may impede our training in the next two days:

Monday: I will be phonebanking somewhere. If you are an Obama supporter, please find out about participating yourself. If you are a McCain supporter, please make sure that you do noting election-related on Monday or Tuesday.
Tuesday: There's some election whatchmahoozie going on. (If you are a McCain supporter, remember to vote on November 5.) I'll be voting and the probably lying on the floor shaking for a few hours. That will be a pretty sight I guarantee you.

Come Wednesday we'll be running at 4:45 as usual. See you then.

This week

Join your lovely captain-folk for skiage Tuesday-Friday at 4:35. I'll try to show up Wednsday-Friday — otherwise I'll be running later as I have lots of stuff going on during the day. If you want to run late, give a yell.

Snow is not far off! The first day the snow flies within four hours (no I did not drive out to Bozeman last week) I'll be there — and will take people along if there is interest.
