Hey Jib, hope you're enjoying yourself. And you can keep the snow http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f3...p/badteeth.gif

Its just starting to get hot here....where the hell is TC?

Well I hope you enjoy yourself in.........TC. It's finally summer here and I couldn't be happier(well actually) and I'm not much of a snowboarder.

Treble Cone. It's a skifield in the South Island of NZ.

Oh and Jibber if it matters, it's been snowing like a prick in Christchurch all day too.

^ I'm so jealous, it hasn't snowed to sealevel in Dunedin yet, only on the hills! Bloody cold enough though. Snow is my favourite thing ever. :)

I think this is really funny, because it is summertime where I live :)

Likewise *Highfives Alex*

I think it's amusing too. I got the day off work so everyone wins:)

**** you guys I'm Aussie and it doesn't snow where I live *Runs in shame*

My grandma is from Bundaberg, I would much rather be drinking ginger beer/rum in Australia than living in this cold shithole.

And well you should, being Aussie 'an all.:p:

yeah cheeseman you guys got DUMPED on! did you manage to escape the power outages, cant remember if that was actually in christchurch or just in the mackenzie area. and to anyone who wants to know, I FUCKING LOVE IT HERE! could definitely see myself coming back to live here permanently after i finish school back home, such a sick country, met so many amazing people, just absolutely love it!

Good to hear you're enjoying it after the rental fiasco.
No power outages here, but plenty of surges so intermittent computers at work coupled with lights resetting= most of the day off.:)

More expected tomorrow and over the weekend so I will use the work ute as I don't want my car out in it.

yes, apparently rental prices back home are now higher than here in wanaka, so hearing that little tidbit of information made me feel quite differently. yes i'm having to pay high rent, but i'd MUCH rather have to pay it here, in a sick ski town, riding everyday, with an awesome group of people than stuck at home. it was raining a tiny bit last night, and cold enough that it woulda been snowing up top, but i doubt anything really accumulated, unless it was heavier up top than in town, i hear we're in for a massive dump over the weekend though, should be great seeing as how cardies opens in 5 days, and tc in 9!

I think we're in for some soon. It as cold as a witches tit at the moment.

Thermometer says 0.

yeah it's really warm at the moment here, but queenstown's had severe weather warnings issued for later this week, so we'll probably be in for another massive dump. the good thing about here is if it's 7 degrees in town, it'll be cold enough to snow up at top, so even if its raining, if you can see your breath, it'll be puking in the mountains. woot woot!

It never happened here. Hardly even rained.:(

Typical too.

And the weather service was basically promising Snowstorm Armageddon, like they do everytime things get a little cold.

waxed my skis and tuned up the edges yesderday!!!!! purchasing mass ammounts of redbull this afternoon!!!!!!!!!!!! skiing tomorow skiing tomorow skiing tomorow!!!!!!!!!! woot woot!!!!! opening day at cardies!!!!!! opening day at TC on tuesday!!!!!!! woot woot woot woot!!!!!!!!!! SKIING SKIING SKIING!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT WOOT!!!!!!

Is this how you make your money? like are you pro?

^hahaha
no, far from it
i just lived like a hermit this past year at home, worked my ass off, didnt have a social life and let school slide to make money and try to get my usual (and pathetic) 20 days of skiing in a season, then headed out here to travel/ski.

went skiing yesterday at cardrona for opening day, SOOOOO SICK!!! fresh tracks first thing in the morning, and ducking the gates all day long lead to getting freshies as late as 3pm! unbelievable, now i have to wait another 3 days to ski again though, cause i'm too poor to spend money on day passes at cardies until tc opens. 3 days, woot woot!!
