the pleasure of start that we loose with time.
ahh, the joy in starting. something. anything. a new year. a skinny love. a hobby or art.when i think of january i can NOT help but think that it marks the beginning, but why? why can't it just be the next month after december and the month before february, as it actually is? the calendar really is a fascinating thing. mayhaps i'll do some more research on that at a later date.
well, to conform with the norm and bring in the new year and start fresh, what better place to be than steamboat? i went last year and was so happy it worked out again this year. now this is a tradition i could get used to. a long weekend in a cozy welcoming house to reside at, fresh powder snow to ski on, hot springs of water to lounge in, sights to let the mind drift away to. all things i thoroughly enjoy. so we banged some pots, we skied some slopes while dodging trees, we soaked in hot tubs, we snowshoed with too many clothes on, and enjoyed wonderful company. sounds to me this year of two thousand and ten was started off beautifully.
so my hope for you and me this year would be to live in a way [with words from italo calvino] "that what he sought was always something lying ahead, and even if it was a matter of the past it was a past that changed gradually as he advanced on his journey, because the traveler's past changes according to the route he has followed"

Have a fun time in Steamboat, it's a great Colorado experience. Have you ever been to Strawberry Park hot springs? If not, check it out when you go.
