I was talking to S. about snowboarding. I will probably have ski passes to the Vail resorts this year -* I won't be able to go as heavily as I did last year but I thought it'd be fun to go with Noisebridge and SudoRoom folks. * *Why Snowboarding is not Bourgeois in Tahoe* - It costs about $35-40 roundtrip gas in my car and I can fit more than one person in my hatchback - It doesn't have to be expensive. I often stayed at motel rooms that were $35-40 a night especially around the Reno area. they were fine. plus we're hackers. look at how filthy our spaces are. we'll do fine - food doesn't have to be expensive either - Reno is a pretty bombed out area financially and there are many cheap grocery stores and diners. - the casinos in Reno are kind of fun, post apocalyptic, they remind me of Mad Max beyond the thunder dome Anyone interested? we can do snowboarding not for rich people! <3 Best, Romy ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
