Winter Oympics

[merc]

I have a job tonight in Queens .
I have to make sure I don't get shot ,
my men don't get shot , and then
survive the weather .

That sounds like an Olympic sport .🤔

Right now it's 5° / -11° windchill
Going down to 2° .

Keep your powder dry
and an edge on your knife .
Stay out of harm's way ,

So I introduce my friend Terry to his future wife and they begot little Kelly. She grew up in Vermont snowboarding and won Gold in the first ever Olympic snowboarding event for the U.S..
Snowboarding was growing when I retired from skiing having spent many yrs. in the mountains. Its grown to a billion dollar $$ industry.

Growing up in SW Ohio we didn't have the big hills and mountains to really get into it. A HS classmate's father owned the only ski venue around those parts. Lack of real snowfall didn't help either. It was more like frozen mud skiing with fake snow from machines on top.
