Haitian Relief, Mos Def

Friday, February 5th, 2010

Mos Def put on a show at the Independent on Wednesday.  It was a benefit for Haiti.  The show was great, but it was the poets that spoke before the show that left an impression with me.  I forgot that San Fran has an underground poets scene.  They reminded me of the movie, So I […]

Sundance 2010

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

“A serious deficiency of vitamin D” the doctor said to me this week.  I visited the doctor about 4 times while I was in Utah.  The whole time, I felt like I had mono again.  I was fairly grateful to hear that from the doc. I attended the Sundance Film Festival for probably the 5th […]

Tubing in Park City

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

Every time you drive into Park City from Salt Lake, you drive past the Gorgoza Sled hill.  They even light it up for you at night, to draw more attention to it.  It the perfect advertisement for the thousands of kids that pile in to Park City.  After bailing on multiple commitments to tube down […]

Utah Christmas

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

I was super fortunate enough to spend the holiday season in Utah.  The whole family spent the week in Park City for Christmas.  Some old friends were in town too.  So, it was great to see everyone.  The hills needed a little snow.  I skied before Christmas at the Bird with my boy Ross and […]

Northern California

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

I have spent the past 10 days in the bay area of California.  The trip encompassed a combination of events.  Ultimately, it allowed me to spend some time with some great people (both family and friends) and to get a good grasp on San Francisco and Oakland.  The first weekend was Halloween and SF had […]

Boulder

I was fortunate enough to be able to stop over in Colorado for a few days before I continued on to Utah.  Colorado is home to some of my good friends.  My good buddy from growing up, Paul, is getting his PHD in Anthropology.  His parents have a great place in Siverthorne, CO.  We drove […]

The Pond Skimming Contest - The Canyons

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

I was fortunate enough to get a long weekend in Park City.  This weekend had all the fun of a crazy pond skimming contest and two powder days.  Utah got pounded with a ton of snow that week.  Unfortunately, I didn’t take any photos of us skiing the pow because it was too much fun.  […]

I had the pleasure of spending almost two weeks in Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho for the Christmas holiday.  The whole family was in Utah for Christmas.  And then Daniel and Brian showed up after.  After the 30th, we headed up to Jackson for three days of skiing on the new tram.  I skied 11 days […]
