” if your going to san francisco be sure to wear some flowers in your hair..” We totally forgot. San Francisco adventure very spontaneous of us, our snowboards got stolen so we said eff lets go to san fran. Hopped in the truck and off we went. I googled cool things to look at in san francisco it told me, golden gate bridge (check) alcatraz island (check) china town (check) cable cars (didnt get to ride them!) union square (unfortunetly had no time) We discoverd at starbucks a pasion tea soy misto tastes like cake,vanilla icing,strawberrieshortcake. We were SPEEDING on the way there and almost got caught by a copper, luckly someone passed us without seeing him.. suckkaaa. Drove by Sacramento CA. Discovered that the HOV lane lets you skip toles on sf bridges, whoop! So we are downtown and decide to just park the truck and get out. Underground parking in a huge truck is like austin powers in a golf cart. We walked around, went up to china town then hopped on a subway and went to Valencia st. Very cool st i recomend a walk down that bad boy. Cool book stores, thrift stores, botiques and our favourite Herbivore. A vegan reasturant affordable and very tasty. My friend that moved to SF this year said he would come meet us but didnt (boo) so we had a cute little vegan threesome date. And after all that it was getting dark and time to drive home to hang out with Jlazz. NEXT TIME im in san fran i want to take a cable car to union square and then check our valencia st before 7pm (they were closing when we were walking around). We were walking back to the truck and a bum mimiced me, it was funny. We lank offd over this pylon and started driving back to Tahoe. I almost fell asleep driving i was doing the headshake to keep my eyes open thing. Arrived at Johnnys house with his cool kitchen and wicked mom. We stayed up talking like a little sleepover.

The Girls Division was up next, and these femme-shreds really put on a show! It’s amazing to watch the progression of girls jibbing but is also fully expected when you have serious competition like Caley Vanalas, Erika Burgess and Taylor Godber. The crowd watched on as these girls threw down switch front boards on the flat-down, and gapping off the pole-jam to nose press on the down box, and tail slide 270’s out. This was truly a memorable division and the aforementioned tricks will be lingering in everyone’s mind for a while!
Feb 13th around 4pm I left whistler California bound. Tay and I filled up errr tankk and drove to vancouver. We thought we had to stay in washington overnight to wake up early for the rail jam but half way to van realized that it was a night jam. SO we stayed at Taylors house in Tsawwassen, BC. We woke up had egg burritos and lattes, alat of lattes. LINE AT BOARDER WAS HUGE. That was like the longest part of driving to SUMMITSNOWQUAMIE. um anyways we had a super nice/funny/creepy boarder dude. He asked if we were going to the SUPERMODEL CONVENTION. What a line what a line.

Darrah and I won NUMCHUCKS!! haha they are cool, so now we are all qualified for the finals later in the year and will be making another trip to mammoth. We straight lined it to TAHOE and ITS DUMPING HERE, most snow we have seen all year. We rode freshhhy pow from house to house down this hill it was wicked. Darrah and I are putting together first day tahoe movie hold up hold up.
So last night we had the send off, super girly dancing night really fun lots of pizza and laughing and I chased raccoons home. Today I woke up and got some to do’s ta done. Did laundry packed for our two week road trip, went by rogers to see how to make my phone bill not out of controll while I’m gone. Stopped by Aritzia bought a leather jacket (so excited about), Stopped by The Circle picked up some new Electrics and circle shirts!! Realized I forgot to untag myself fully and ran back to TNA. The village was going off!!! its like a year till the olympics yesterday? Um anyways I drove down with Tay we stopped by Future shop and got a new charger for my camera and 2 tank-tops for 10 dollars at sirens, stoked. We realized that the Volcom PBRJ was a night jam so we decided to stay at Tay’s mom’s place in Tsawwassen, since its close to the boarder we can leave a little later and go have fun tommorow night. We are hoping we just clean up top five.. haha we will see….
