But it was worth it.<br><br>My friend Michael and I met at Seymour Mountain at 10am on Sunday morning. Even from the parking lot, we could see a thick white cloud cover blanketing Vancouver and Burnaby. We headed up the mountain, stripping layers as we went and it didn't take long before we were down to our single layer shirts.<br><br>There were lots of people up there skiing, boarding, snowshoeing, and enjoying the sun. We had lunch on top of second peak, lay in the sun for a while, and then ran, slid, and fell down the mountain as fast as we could. Note to self: wear pants with a stronger material on the bum...<br><br>Thanks for a great day you two!<br><br><br><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" class="abp-objtab visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/F41zqENper4"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" class="abp-objtab visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/F41zqENper4"></a><object height="350" width="425"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/F41zqENper4"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/F41zqENper4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="425"> </object> Main Page Adventure Animals Health & Fitness Troy Angrignon http://www.troyangrignon.com/blog/_archives/2007/1/15/2651948.html http://www.troyangrignon.com/blog/_archives/2007/1/15/2651948.html Mon, 15 Jan 2007 10:03:56 -0800 Here is a little video I threw together about our epic snowshoe running day on Cypress Mountain yesterday. Remember to get out and enjoy winter while it's here! Thanks Ean and Blue for a GREAT day. Hope to have many more of these before the snow leaves us again.<br><br>This film was made entirely with my pocket-sized Olympus Stylus 750 camera and iMovie. <br><br>Soundtrack: "Running Two" from "Run Lola Run" available at Amazon.com <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Run-Lola-Original-Picture-Soundtrack/dp/B00000JG17/sr=1-1/qid=1168886945/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-7109357-2220718?ie=UTF8&amp;s=music">here</a>. To watch the large version of the film, click on the YouTube logo in the lower right hand corner, and then when you land on the video on YouTube, click the icon in the lower right hand corner of THAT. (It's two steps from here is what I'm saying.) Otherwise, just click on the middle of this video and enjoy it right here on the blog.<br><br><br><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" class="abp-objtab visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/nkFQf0zxHys"></a><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 0px ! important;" class="abp-objtab visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/nkFQf0zxHys"></a><object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nkFQf0zxHys"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nkFQf0zxHys" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="350" width="425"></object> Main Page Adventure Animals Environment Health & Fitness Life Lessons Troy Angrignon http://www.troyangrignon.com/blog/_archives/2006/12/30/2608810.html http://www.troyangrignon.com/blog/_archives/2006/12/30/2608810.html Sat, 30 Dec 2006 23:07:35 -0800 Here's a <a href="http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/local/article/0,1299,DRMN_15_5223711,00.html">great story</a> about a dog helping to rescue Danielle Ballengee.
