We have a great bunch of people on the Gung Haggis Fat Choy dragon boat team. Many people have really built some good friendships. Everything we continue to do, somehow seems to revolve around or include eating.The next day, some of us tried out snowboarding for the first time on Grouse Mountain. Jonas had offered to teach beginners. I was the only skier, but was also able to help the neophyte boarders too. During an eating break, I tried out Jen's board and boots. I fell lots, and it took me 3 tries before I could get to the top of the Paradise beginner hill rope tow. It had been 12 1/2 years since my only other snow board try. Now I remember why I have stuck to skies. It's easier, and I can still do my old free-style tricks.   more »
