I made it to Seattle! Yay!
I would like to thank everybody who made my trip possible. Andres, Triina, Matt, Ben, Brret, Benton, Briana, Kyle, Alex, Sam, hippies, Wyoming locals, etc.
A special thanks to Grant for being my partner in crime and mountain guide.
It was an epic trip and one that really gave me the adventure and relaxation that I needed after such a hectic December of packing, moving, studying, working, and saying goodbye.
I did learn a few things. Saying goodbye is hard, no matter what the situation. Keeping busy is the best medicine. I also learned that I love skiing more than I remembered and that I really really needed that break. I think Benton and Briana have the best idea of taking a season off every now and then to just ski full time.
For the remainder, they say that time can heal most anything. I will be giving that a go with Seattle; all shiney and new with fresh possibilities. I'm super excited but prone to complaining, so I need to just chill and take things in stride. I know there will be adjustments to be made (like dealing with city parking), and making new friends, but the best thing I found out is that I already have great people in my life, even if they are far away.
