Details:

Well, it was Veteran's Day, which means that every kid west of the Rockies was
out of school, and on the slopes at Boreal.  Damn crowded - people everywhere.
Still, there were some really nicely-formed hits scattered about, and we had a
great time jumping them, catching the action with digital cameras and a sweet
little digital camcorder.
It's hard not to get bored - especially on a second day - at Boreal, but just
getting out there and making turns is SUCH a great feeling!  Starting to get
my 'snow legs' back... and I always say:
The WORST day snowboarding is better than the BEST day working!
