Thanks to school I have no real content to post to the site even though it’s been a month since I’ve wasted your time with helmet cam video. I apologize. I’m going to go through my Whistler footage and try to post some video soon while I day dream of my care-free summer.

In other, more important news, SNOW. It’s on the forecast. For tomorrow.

Ahh…24 hours until I once again give up on my hopes and dreams and decide skiing is a much smarter way to plan my future than computer science…

Ullr, you are truly a sight for sore eyes,
Jake
