at least a foot

Well,
here we are in portland, with about a foot of snow!!! no kidding. We've been skiing in the streets for 2 days and the temps in the 20s.

Imagine a foot of snow, and no snow plows, and that's what we have here. The roads where cars have driven are like huge birkie trails, hard packed, flat and wide. Interstate 84 is still closed between portland and hood river, and it's quite obvious that the snow's not going to melt in the next few days, because it's still 25 degrees with temps forecast to stay below 35 for the next few days.

Have you seen me latley?

It's been pretty crazy around here with the job, and school starting this week. So let's just say it's been super busy here, but the weather has been pretty awesome. All I hear about is how it rains constantly in this city, and since we moved here in June it's probably rained 5 times or less. Now watch, tomorrow will be the beginning. Hopefully more of the days will be like today, it was damn near perfect.

In skiing news, the Portland Oregon dryland XC skiing workouts begin this week (Sept 29th). More information here. The cyclocross season is also underway, but I have not yet raced. That's still the plan.

Later-
