I just got back from talking to a bunch of cool people who put together a ski house every winter. They pretty much convinced me to buy a share so every other weekend this winter I am going to be MIA.

I might wake up and decide I don’t want to spend the money but the people all seemed like a fun group so I think that is unlikely. I’ve been saying I want to meet more people in the Boston area but with work being 40 minutes away and the hours I keep it has been harder.

The cool thing about a ski house is everyone there has at least one common interest and that is plowing down a mountain of snow at high velocity on planks of wood and fiberglass. WIth an average age of 29 at this perticular house and only 8 minutes from Killington it is right up my ally.

I took the skibus up last winter almost every weekend which was great but not as social as I would like. Also waking up at 4 in the morning and only having a day to ski pretty much killed the rest of the weekend. I would get to work on Mondays not feeling like I had the time to recharge my batteries. With the ski house I don’t have to rush and can decide I don’t want to ski on Sundays and take it easy. They are also going to have Internet so I can hack during downtimes.

Ok, so now I am just trying to convince myself it is worth it. I can’t think of anything that would stop me.
