Loving what I sea...: Mt Hutt

This past weekend I was down in New Zealand on a little snowboarding trip with Renee and her awesome friends from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. We stayed in this cute little town called Methven at the base of Mt Hutt. I haven’t been snowboarding in TEN years, so I was a bit worried I would eat it big time. It turned out to be an awesome time and I was doing fine until the afternoon of the second day when I fell back straight down onto my tailbone. I tried for one more run down the easy slope, but pretty much just slid down the whole way on my butt, which was a bad idea. Still nursing a bum bum and using one of those doughnut pillow cushions at work to help the pressure. I look and feel like an ass, but it was totally worth it! I had the best time and can’t wait to go again! New Zealand was absolutely beautiful and serene. I haven’t felt so calm in a place in a long time. Looking forward to getting back over there sometime in the next few months to explore both islands and get some pictures of the sheep close up. They are everywhere!

I always start a trip with a pic of me on the plane, ready to take off. It was freaking bright outside, so I needed to have the shades on, since you have to keep the window covers up - not cause I think I am cool.
