I'm actually still trying to find someone to take me and a solid date :/ was supposed to go Sunday, but my friend didn't go through with it. Boyfriend has been working with other managers all week, and then I leave for the Bahamas Jan 31st : (

I was thinking about taking the mountain's bus this week, but keep reading you shouldn't go alone. So, we'll see. I'm getting anxious. Sucks not having chains for my car!

go to les schwab and get chains...if you don't use them, you can return them for a refund. I've been going to Baker for 10 years and have only chained up like 4 times....chains are great if you need them...better and cheaper than an accident or slide in the ditch

Sweet deal. I'll check my Cobalt forum too and see if anybody's selling some.

live adventurously, meet new folks, take the bus, check CL rideshare or UW...you know standard precautions about folks...but most skiers and boarders are alright. maybe it will kick said bf in gear to get it together.

"Stranger Danger" on craigslist ; D
He loves snowboarding and just bought a 2013 Jeep so he won't hold off from going up for much longe, esp to be able to break the truck in! He's just a hard little worker bee.

Oh and BTW, I put "Seattle" but do actually live in Tacoma.

Oh man I'm so happy and relieved. Forgot about my last Soc Sec check, it came last night so now I have plenty of money to buy my own board.
