Another day closer…

Odometer: 0.0 Miles

My brother in Idaho is letting me stay in his basement and skiing with me while I’m there, and his friends in Eugine, OR are letting me stay in their home for a day or 2 as well so I can get a chance to check out UO, and maybe even go skiing with them at Mt. Bachelor!

Looks like I’ll be getting a season pass for next year at Bogus Basin in Boise, ID that’s also good for the end of this year, that’ll pay for itself quickly 🙂

I’m going to start spreading the word about this site now that it’s a bit more refined than it has been the last few days. Please let me know what you think, and what I could do to improve it (but nothing major, since I am leaving in 2-3 days). Enjoy.
