Summer Snowboarding
There is 13+ feet of snow above 9,000ft. It looks like it'll be a while before I can start backpacking in the high country.

Easter Snowboarding
It normally takes 6 minutes for the chairlift to take us to the top of the mountain, but since the resort is closed, the lifts aren't operating. We decided to take a hike up the ski hill today since the last storm system dumped 2 feet on the mountain in a matter of days. It took us a couple of hours to hike up with our snowboards strapped to our backpacks. It was a long and strenuous hike but the rewards of riding down in knee deep powder are PRICELESS! And we get to bring our dog with us!
Coachella Music & Arts Festival
Last year was our first time attending Coachella Music Festival in Indio California, (near Palm Springs) and we are HOOKED for life! There are 5 stages of music, from noon until 1am, 150 different bands, 3 days, car camping, hot weather, sunshine and enough people watching to last a lifetime. I took over 400 pictures but I'll only be posting a few of my favorites on here to give you an idea of what it was like.
Grand Targhee 80's party with DJ Doubletime
The week before Grand Targhee (our ski hill) closed for the season, they threw an 80's party. What's an 80's party without neon, spandex, vintage ski racing sweaters, and moon boots?
Recent Musical Acts
Back in March, Willie Nelsons son Lukas Nelson and his band came out here to play. They play here about 4x a year because it's one of their favorite places to visit and jam with their fans. Here are a few pics from that evening and the next day.

New friends visit from Tennessee
New friends came to visit us in December! We met this fabulous TENNESSEE (what a coincidence!) couple while backpacking this fall in Zion National Park. They flew out and stayed with us for a week. I was really hoping they would quit their jobs back in TN and just move in with us so we can play together everyday. HA! I wish! And so do they!
