Well I had a fairly odd dream the other night I was in a public place but I was not able to identify where I was. I knew there were many people around but they didn't seem to notice me or care what I was up too. Except one person a t.v. news reporter she came up to me and started to ask me questions but they didn't make any sense -- but I was answering her questions but I don't know what I was saying but it must have been what she was asking about because this continued for a long time then we got into a car together the reporter and I and drove off the camera man stayed where he was but then just as the reporter was going to ask me something personal -- this question I understood I woke up
How typical of my life these days right when I think things are beginning to look up everything starts to go wrong.
So one day my brother and I were skiing in Whistler British Columbia (I'm not Canadian) and we were at the peak on the ride up the mountain the peak area fogged in. This was interesting because there are several drop offs of some distance and rough areas of exposed rock that can cause a not so good day on the slopes. By the time we reached the top of the mountain it was nearly a white out no tree or other landscape to break the white of the fog and the white of the snow. standing there on the top of the mountain at 7000 feet was like being in limbo. We noticed that if we stood there too long we would become completely disoriented and not find our way down until it cleared. So bravely we headed down the mountain at times it seemed like we were floating in the air because the was no way to visually distinguish the ground from the sky and drop offs and hazards all around made the run all the more exciting we were among the very few who were brave enough or foolish enough to attempt getting off the mountain in those conditions when we finally descended into the tree lines at 5000 feet we were glad that it was over but sad because we were truly back on earth and it really did seem like we trapped by gravity again.
