Fifth Annual Cousins Snowboard Trip

5th Annual (3rd for me) "Cousins" Snowboard Trip went down March 3-5, 2006. Martin and his cousins have been doing this for 5 years, and I joined them 3 years ago. It's always a blast, and of course we had a great time this time too! The ride into Reno on Friday night was pretty lengthy (snow & traffic), but it was well worth it. The next day, show conditions were perfect for boarding. We did a lot of things in a short amount of time, and I even won $100...

As usual, here's are the pictures, courtesy of DiazPhoto.com:

Btw, our next Snowboard Trip is this Sunday. It'll be a day-trip at SugarBowl. It's been dumping for the last 10 days, and Sunday is going to be the 1st sunny day. The conditions should be excellent... Fresh Powder, baby!
We'll leave Martin's house (Stockton) around 6AM, and we should be back at Martin's by 6PM. Let me know if you wanna go!!!

CONGRATULATIONS SEEMA!

Seema got a new job as a "Consultant" with a division of Robert Half.

This & That

Martin and I went snowboarding on the 11th, and we had a KILLER day... I think it was one of the best snowboarding days for me, EVER! The snow was just about perfect; it wasn't too crowded; and I improved my technique by leaps and bounds. Martin did some sweet jumps, and we got some cool pictures, but I haven't had a chance to load the pics on here...

Actually, with Blogger.com, it's kind of tough to post pics, unless I do them straight from my phone; Or you have to host them somewhere else and provide a link on here. So, to make a long story short, I'm working on a new website that allows me to load pictures more easily. I hope to have that up in a week or two.

I'll be in Tahoe/Reno for the weekend and I hope the weather is good for boarding on Saturday!!!

Super Bowl Pictures

We had a Super Bowl party at John's, and of course I cooked up some of that "Sat's BBQ Chicken"... Here are some pictures of the party, courtesy of Martin Diaz.

Here's a little warm up with pictures of:

Snowboarding

We went snowboarding on Sunday, but we ran into all kinds of traffic going there and coming back. We forgot that it was a holiday weekend, and there were so many people on the road.
We had planned on going to Alpine Meadows, but they got sold out by the time we got there, so we ended up going to Diamond Peak. The boarding was great, there was lots of snow, and the view were spectacular. Good first trip of the season... aside from the traffic. Next trip in a coulple of weeks.

Half Moon Bay BBQ & BonFire

We'll be doing a BBQ and Bonfire at the beach on Saturday. We'll be leaving around 12PM from Milpitas. We should have the BBQ started by 2PM. If it's cold, we'll also get the bonfire started at that time, and we'll be there all day, and into the night. It gets dark by 7, so I'm assuming we'll start heading back around 10PM. Although, we can stick around later if we need to.

Here's a map of the exact location:

If anyone has access to free firewood, please let me know. We're going to need it. Drop me a note at Sat_Hans@yahoo.com

Sore as Hell

Harjot finally got a gym membership and we started working out on Tuesday... but we may have overdone it a bit... we should've started out slow, but as they say "no pain no gain". I'm still hella sore, and it's time to get back in the gym again tonight.

1st Post
