Hey guys!
I just finished my last class here at Pacific (well...except for the FINAL exams.. EEK!) and I've been living here in Stockton for a good 3 and a half years ...and in all of the time that I spent here, I've seen the sunny hot California weather, the cloudy gloomy skies, the dark scary thunder/lightning storms, but I've NEVER ever seen SNOW here. I never thought it would snow so it was GREAT when there was news of a light snowdown last Monday! I don't know if you like playing in snow but I absolutely LOVE snowboarding and skiing! Usually, there are some good ski/snowboarding resorts near Lake Tahoe (like 2 hours+ away) and it's a great if you want to explore some new adventures during your winter break!
GRAR!
Here's some really cool links to check out:
- Snowboarders/Skiers competing in Stockton! (This took place at the Lincoln Center which is down Pacific Avenue and is not too far from our campus!)
- Winter Wonderland Article!
- Best of Snowboarding (You guys should definitely try it! But please don't try to do these tricks the first time ;)
- Guide for Snowboarding/Ski resorts in California!
How to Snowboard! It's not too bad guys!
And I can't forget the skiing stuff!
I will stay in Stockton for another 3 years for grad school and I am looking forward to more snow adventures. I am by far not a pro at snowboarding or skiing but I love the adrenaline rush. Don't forget, it's also fun to just throw snowballs at each other or make pretty snowmen (like the life-size one at the top!)
Hope you have fun thrill-seeking!!
