teledave arrived at teh casa de EastCoaster on Thursday night, and we got up at 5:15 Friday morning to catch the first few lifts. A rather uneventful drive up through Poca county, temps were WARM- 50 degrees when we showed up. I actually really enjoyed the skiing- classic spring snow, soft everywhere and slushy in some spots. I would much rather be skiing this kind of surface than ice, because you can actually set an edge.



We showed up and I got exposed to this, SO I WILL EXPOSE YOU ALL IN XL PICTURE STYLIE:







The horror. THE HORROR.



Anyway, then I got to ski with some cool peeps. Player 1, telenutz:







Player 2, bfeller:







The tools:







GO BFELLER GO:







telesteeze:







Look at that kneedropping action. If the glare from the coat doesnt blind you first:







BBBBFEEELLLLERRRRRR on upper Shays:







HES SO PHOTOGENIC:







bfeller gets it done on lower shays:











OMG that teledave is so dreamy in his blue jacket:















Uber-lameness on my part on lower Shays:











Great day of skiing yesterday. THEN IT WAS TIME TO PARTAY. Gonna downsize the pics a bit:



The place:







The sponsor:







The "staff":







The "tools":

Someone likes teh brewz...







Ga Tom is zen:







mmmmmmbopp likes the wings:







Powdermonkey likes the band:

"HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW THE NAME TELEDAVE???"







The crew this morning:

I really envy all you people who made it up to Snowshoe this weekend. Looks like a really good time. This will be the first season in 5 or 6 years that I don't make ti to Snowshoe. Oh well.
