Will I get thrown off the site if I admit that I'm more excited that it's not going to be triple digits (or even 90's) for my race this weekend than that it's going to be snowing?
Out on that course it's going to be a true blessing but I'm really glad you have a wetsuit since it's gonna be a cold swim.

EXCITING! I'm crossing my fingers for an early, cold, snowy winter out here in Calif! We've had quite a cool summer so far....amazingly mild. It's hot now for a few days, but we've had no long extended hot periods so far. AND...I'm already finding acorns on the ground, and an old timer here once told me that indicates an early winter. But SNOW in August. Yikes! Wonderful! I'm bored with biking already and am ready to get out the skis again...after all, it has been 4 months!!!

I've been saying for weeks how much I can't wait for ski season, but I gotta admit my heart sank when I heard the weather forecast this morning. Snow in August is a little much...
I immediately checked to see if Telluride was part of that forecast, and thankfully, we aren't.
Although, come this time in about two months I'll be singing a very different tune.

Oooh -it snowed here in French Alps down to about 2800m last night. I can see it out my window. Definite chill in the air! V. exciting..... but then I haven't had a chance to do all the things I wanted to do this summer yet, cycle, swim, hike, camp. The days aren't long enough !!!

The Eisenhower Tunnel has snow right now. It was snowing when I drove up last night as well. I think people thought I was nuts when I rolled down the window and stuck my hand out in it. :D

Loveland Pass is closed. Woo hoo!
And -- how exciting! -- I had a dream about skiing last night! I can't remember doing that before. There was some skiing involved (some really bad, out-of-control skiing ...??), but mostly it was about ski boots. Mostly just typically weird dream stuff: I had lost a ski boot while on a ski run (although I hadn't taken it off, so I couldn't figure out where it was), then I went to the bootfitter on the mountain trying to find it. There were yellow boots (like Tecnicas) and blue boots (like my Langes) all over the place, but none were mine.
I guess that wasn't a very positive dream, now that I think about it.

Whoa ... no smells, I don't think.
Mostly I was having a lot of trouble with my technique. I was skidding and pushing my heels everywhere. What a nightmare! ha ha
Maybe the loss of a boot was the reason for it, or maybe it was the excuse I gave for forgetting how to ski. "I'm on one ski in sketchy snow ... whaddya expect!?!"

This is believable if I were the out of control skier in your dream. You, not so much.
Maybe that's a sign that you'll ski with an out of control skier this winter. I'll look forward to it!

I just got back from Breckenridge where the mountains were covered with snow. There was six inches in some places yesterday morning, and I was walking around Town in a ski jacket, then went to a restaurant with an open fire. It felt like a ripple in the space/time continuum to be experiencing that in August!! Weird, so weird.
