Chris White’s post about his lost weekend mirrors my own thoughts on Week 4 of 8-Week.  Not only was it brutally cold, but I had to undergo a dreadful task - car shopping.  Necessary, but I still have my regrets of missed turns and missed opportunity.

We got back out there last weekend, and Hannah took her first trip up the Tram.  Exciting for sure.  But when I caught a glimpse of the videos below, I realized that I wasn’t just excited for her, for that accomplishment - mixed in there was the excitement of knowing that she was that much closer to attempting this kind of stuff.  The instructor is John Witherspoon (a.k.a. “Spoon”) - get more info on who he is and what he does here.  This group has FUN.  And I don’t mean the smiling, giggling fun that can be had romping through Moon Walk Woods.  They attack the mountain - they go everywhere, and do anything - they take advantage of everything the mountain has to offer, boundary line to boundary line.  I want in.  This is Raising ‘em Jay at its best.
