benefits

okay... so i am going to make a deal with you... i will post a ton of fun pics today with a couple of brief stories. i'll get in to the good stories that require i bit more room on my day off--wednesday. sound good? well, it better, because you don't have a choice.
one of the benefits for being an employee here is this thing called the grand pass. basically, we reserve a pass for the day (SMR has 10 of them... and SMR pays 1600.00 a year to have them available for their employees... yes, that much). the pass gets us discounts on food in winter park, and it gives us completely free access to all the attraction at the winter park resort... a 60 dollar value, absolutely free... unlimited putt putt, alpine slide, chair lift rides, spinny machines, and more. super cool, super fun. so a group of four of us went there on our day off last week and had a ton of fun. the alpine slide was my favorite... there will be a video clip coming soon that was taken by a camera that my friend strapped to his chest as he rode down. this thing is fast... kind of like lugeing/bobsledding all rolled in one. there was also a human maze. the putt putt was a sweet course. so that's about it. oh, and then we stopped by a park on the way home... so that's what those pics are.
okay, so thats it... i will get in to more detailed stories later this week. stay tuned.

i've been alpine sledding before back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. it is a lot of f-u-n, almost as fun as spelling. anyways, alpine sledding was part of a task in the mole a couple episodes back. thought you might like to know.
