Catching up on the blog!

Had a fantastic day yesterday the big boss Swede's friend showed up on a harley after driving from NYC and Swede wanted to take him out for a heli hike as a treat and asked if I wanted to come along (Sorry but Carol was on her own again in the kitchen). We drove down to Hagensborg where the hanger is and the pilot Rob gave us a quick run down on helicopter safety and then we took off into the costal mountain range- the view was unbelievable. Swede pointed out some of the runs they do in the winter and where they do some of the hiking. Leonard wanted to touch down on a ridge and the pilot obliged and we put a few helicopter prints in the snow on the top off one of the peaks. Fantastic!
