New Boots for 10/11

After six seasons rocking' the Salomon's I figured it was a good time to invest in some new footwear. Opting for the Tecnica's was a decision I may regret. My first and last pair of Tecnica's was on the Explosion 8's back in mid-90's (yes gentleman, we're getting old). I remember the break-in period was tough, but then grew to love them before ripping the sole off the right boot at Hunter... Good times.
Well now I don't have to wear my BD's at the resort anymore. Be good and be safe as we head into winter.

Next purchase, new ski's. But first I have to buy a pass. Anyone have an extra couple, two-tree thousand laying around?

Montauk

Another amazing day!!! Unfreakin believable!
Went out with my Dad, Mike, and Sal for a day trip to Montauk for the fall run. The amount of fish we saw is indescribable. Watching thousands of fish feeding is a cool experience, catching them is even better! We lost count of how many Bass we pulled over the side...all in the 27"-32" range.

My father and I...


30"er


Never caught a bird in my life. Three guys caught 2 birds each. Yup, we caught 6 birds...6 freakin birds...never heard of such a thing. We would think a fish was on...but the line would be going straight up in the air. We would fly em like kites until they crash landed. Funny, in a sick kinda way. All birds were unharmed.


Mike...


Check out the bass blitzing in the background...it never gets old.


Grace...she had a full day after deciding she couldn't handle just watching anymore and jumped into 3' choppy swell to see if she can catch either a bird or a striper. Neither...but at least she tried...and she had a blast! I think she likes fishing more than I do...

Bringin' It!

Opening day is around the corner, but still needs LOTS more snow SOON!

BRING IT!!!

I know, I know... I just REALLYYYY like snow.

Not like I'm counting or anything...

And so, the flake watching, and my FAVORITE time of year begins!!! I got NOAA to get to 3500 ft. for Killington for the first time. Think maybe this would be the top of the South Ridge Triple?
