Thine awesomating ski trip where we snowboard

The trip was awesomating. But I hurt like heck. I can't really raise my arms. My knees have bruises, my back just hurts, I have a headache. It all all hurts. That would be courtesy of snow and ice, and my lack of snowboarding skills. So friday we drove for 5 or 6 hours then arrived at the camp place at around 10:30..I think. I'm not really sure. I wasn't paying attention. Then Saturday arrived and we got up went to breakfast, then we went and got ready for skiing/snowboarding. BTW we went with Broadneck EP. So we left for the skiing/snowboarding place around 11 am. we arrived around 12:30. We got our stuff (which was a wonderful learning experience for me). I am not goofy (if you don't get it, then don't ask). We had about 9 hours on the slopes forthose who didn't go in at all. I had to, for my stuff was soaking wet. So i went in around 7 pm and I took my top layer to the girls bathroom and stuck it under the blow dryer for your hands thing. I was doin that with most of my clothes for about 2 hours, and I got dinner during that time. Then around 9 (before my clothes were dry) I decided to take one more run down the bunny hill just to make sure I was alive. (random-right now I feel likeI'm upside down) I'm alive. How do I know? I went really fast...then I did a few jumps off a smallish large hill, and almost died. I fell at the end. Then I got back on the lift to go to the lodge. So we were at the lodge/slopes from 12:30 till 10:30 pm. We know how to pack a day completely full. Then today we packed, ate breakfast, then had worship and a message (for those who went to Victory Jam-the person who gave the message is also known as the Crocodile Hunter, Mr. Incredible and so many more names, but his real name is Steve. He just plays the role of the main character in the skits), then we loaded the van then we went to lunch. Then drove away. We went to Cracker barrel for Dinner. it was good. then MR. Cook Drove us all to our houses...yeah. So heres a number of things that that I learned this weekend-

14. Out of 10 people, no one can figure out how to turn off a gas stove.
15. But we can figure out how to turn the temperature up or down.
16. On ski/snowboard slopes there is almost always a "frostbite warning."
17. I don't like talking. Shocker ain't it?
18. Lauren is crazy about Jello..in a very inhuman way.
19. Allen has around 500 text messages a month to use.
20 Unfortunately he uses them on people who have to pay for them.
21. Mike Cave will sleep pretty much anywhere.
22. But is very alert to smells during his sleep.
23. I'm only ok at snowboarding
24. So says my bruises.
25. Even expert snowboarders (aka Brian) get sore after a day of snowboarding.
26. Apparently the British need Orbit (C) gum.
27. Erin is forgetful
28. People can't tell when you smile with a face mask on.
29. And they think you're really weird when you wave at them.
30. McDonalds likes the word "flippen."

Well we all weren't another 15mins for you to coming down hill while you were just sitting there. I was starting to become inpatient too. maybe next time try regular instead of goofy.
