would for sure be more sustainable, I'd just lose all stealth and gas mileage. I got really tempted with a pickuptruck and cab over camper, but losing the stealth and safety aspect is a tradeoff.

was on my way to ride diamond peak when you wrote that, small resort in tahoe. I meant to lazy day it and just get a couple hours in but fresh storm midweek at a small local resort and it was super good! Rode the next day at squaw and stayed in the park the whole time which was also a mistake - long lap to the bottom was funnest of the day with so much fresh snow still around. Rest of this week I'll be at squaw/alpine. Plan for this season is to avoid any major weather events.

It got to 11 degrees last night! I turn off the heater at night and it got down to 28 inside the van which seems cold but was fine with some blankets/socks/beanie/jacket. Waking up is cold so I have a remote next to my head for the heater that I turn on until it warms up to get up.


pulled up to this spot last night at night after scouting for a few night camp locations. Saw a parking lot and no signs so parked and woke up to this view!

snowboard season was fun. this was closing weekend. Upcoming plans is hiking mt. whitney with some poker homies, stop by and say hello to some friends at WSOP, then back to mexico for surf summer!

Think I'm officially done with online poker, at least for quite some time. I did switch to cash and made a bit of monies, but it doesn't make sense if I'm not willing to commit fulltime to both study and play. Will dork around live once in awhile, but farewell to button mashing for me.

What are you favorite places to stay in Mexico with close by access to consistent breaks and good quality of life? I live in Pichilemu, Chile, and it's the midst of the winter. I forget how easy is it to just surf in your shorts in that warm water!



Awesome ending to snowboarding season, what a party!
