Ahhhhh.....winter......
There is nothing quite like the drive up the eastern sierras. It is absolutely unbelievably undeniably indescribably awesome and beautiful.
We left LA at 5 am on new years eve and drove 4.5 hours north to Mammoth Lakes. We headed straight to the resort and got in a half day of skiing on the mountain. No pix of skiing unfortunately, but i will post some fun helmet camera video later.
Brianna J. wrangled us a cabin in the Snowcreek condo development that housed our motley crew comfortably. It was a New Years/Bri Bday party. Thanks Bri!!!!
The view from the deck on NYE.
It was a merry bunch of close friends.
To summarize the weekend I'd say -
20 bottles of Champagne - 13 people - 6 different illnesses - 4 days of fun in the snow.
Drink from 6 - 12.
Midnight - 2010 - the NEW DECADE. See ya 2009 and the last 10 years! WOOHOO!
(I must say, in my opinion, this was the worst NYE New York show I've ever seen.)
Just look at the excitement.
Make-out at 12:01.
Take some pix on the deck at 12:30.
Take pix inside at 12:35.
Laugh and have fun at 12:45.
Play games at 1am.
2am refuel with Jetfuel.
pass out at 2:30.
It actually didn't happen just like that, but I thought it'd be more interesting as a time-line.
Some of the party players...I'll add more later.
Erika is camera shy...why? I don't know
Beards are mandatory in the mountains. Doug would never let us down.
The ever presentable Kearney-meister.
Oh yeah...In case you were wondering....
All the world IS a beer cooler.
