Orange Pekoe
I don't know why, but I've pretty much given up coffee for Orange Pekoe tea. I can't explain it. It's not a great tea. Not to mention, I buy the cheapest stuff I can find. It seems like the cheaper the better it tastes.
So I'm sipping on my orange pekoe and notice that it is quite chilly today. So I cruise over to Whistler's website and....snow! Already, I'm dreaming of a season pass, jibbing, powder, maybe halfpipe. Wow. I do like snowboarding. So much so, that I even considered bringing one on my last mountaineering trip. Although, once I sobered up I realized that the pain of hauling a snowboard up the hill, the crevasse danger going down the hill and there was a very small amount of hillside that was rideable (note the above picture), well, I gave it up. But now I'm hoping that snow flies early this year.
