Obey Gravity........ It's the law: Fernie Opening Day

Fun at Ferine.
Chris and I went to Fernie on Friday night, Coming into town at 7 O-clock, we found that watching Scrubs on the ipod is nearly as much fun as on the big screen, especially when you can run the sound through the truck speakers. When we finally got to the hill , we were all ready for the hot tub, but the cute short Aussie behind the counter informed us that the hotels hot tub was missing parts that were coming in from Calgary. We told her that we would have gladly brought them along had we known. So we got up to the room, an through back to what I would can only describe as late 80's dinning room. Beds harder than the cement ones I slept on in Russia, and if you wanted a shower curton that was extra, But the flies were free. Condering the price was $69 for hotel and lift ticket & the ticked by it self was $69 we could not complain much. She Suggested that we try one of the other hotels, so we went for a drive and found a hot tub with the door open , we went back to our room got changed and headed down. When we got down to the tub, the door was locked. Then we peaked in the window, and saw that there was a couple in the tub doing ... well what couples do. So we were off to the next tub, after driving around the hill we ended up at an apartment complex. Chris hopped the fence, and opened the door. I went in side and got changed when I came out of the bathroom there were 2 guys there with Chris, they were security. The first thing that went thru my head was , I could bail on Chris but these guys were small and we could take em. The main guard, asked if we got there. Chris said we did. The guard said , well can you do me a favour put the cover on when your done. Once they were gone we had a good laugh.

We were the first in line at 8 for tickets after we got them and paid $9 bucks for an Egg Mc muffin. We got in line until 9 when the lifts started up. The snow was great, a little krusty from being wind blown, but when you break the surface then it was arm deep. I got 10 runs in and we where on every bowl of the hill.
