Extreme Dreaming

Having spent time doing Winter Seasons in the Alps in the 90's & 00's, returning to a more conventional lifestyle of work and family life, I found myself #daydreaming of #snowboarding, #skiing, being back in the #mountains of #Sauze #Val
Spent the last two days evaluating in detail, which Splitboard to buy to replace my old Voile Split Decision.
Spent this morning trying to work out how to put socks on without intense groaning?!! (sitting on the stairs being the answer)
These two conundrums do seem at odds with each other…!!!😳

This a perfect Extreme Dreaming image (although I guess he's living my dreaming...!)
Dude literally just stepped off transit, in ski boots, in downtown Vancouver from skiing somewhere.
Miss this town, but only when I think about it.

An up to date Extreme Dreaming; got a Photochromic lens for my OutdoorMaster goggles, wasn't convinced they were actually changing so had to sit on my snowboard bench in the sun for 15 mins - hard life ay?!
They did change tint, but not a lot, need to see how they perform in the snow...

We haven't had snow but some heavy frost gets the imagination into Mountain mode.
This Extreme Dreaming shot is from 2007 outside Waterloo Station, just returned from a 24 hour trip to #Vald'Isere on #Eurostar!!!! You could do that in those days...!

Just been doing some housework, whilst wearing my new Ion's (or #StormTroopers!)
In this Extreme Dream, the Vacuum cleaner is a "carpet-basher", the carpets are now freshly groomed and when you walk on them, my snowboard boots leave imprints like on crisp corduroy...!
The #cat is still perplexed!

Just taken delivery of my first new Snowboard boots for 15+ years!! 😃 #Burton Ion Boa's, in white!!!! That's a first.
Gonna wear them around the house for the next couple of weeks so they're nice and comfy for the, now only, annual holiday week in the Alps. This is my latter day Extreme Dreaming!

Back in 2000, pre-Twitter, etc, following my last of 3 winter seasons in the Alps, I had a dull existence in London yearning to be back #snowboarding, I sat on Buses and Tubes dreaming of being back in the Mountains...
I was Extreme Dreaming!
