I have a friend that teaches kid's snowboarding at Sunburst. They have a great program. Hope your son has fun. Come on - give snowboarding a chance for you too. I took it up about 4 seasons ago and love it. Granted I'm usually one of the older females out at the local resorts but who cares.

I've always meant to get out and try one of the Metro Mountain bikers rides but never got around to it. Hopefully this year. Make sure to check out the trails at Crystal Ridge too. They are a good workout. Hoyt Park's trails have some nice family friendly areas and are close by for a short evening ride.

I live near the VA Hospital and bike through Tosa on my way to work on the northwest side so we may have passed each other on our opposite commutes.
