Stratton, VT

What’s all the way out in Vermont aside from snow and mountains? The Burton 2008 US Open of course. My friend Ian and I went out to check out this snowboarding extravaganza. The snowboarders were amazing, flying off the half-pipes no problem. I got some pretty sick photos of the pro boarders coming off the pipe and of the serene countryside known as Vermont.

Of course while I was there I decided to try snowboarding for the first time ever. With my trusty guide, he taught all about the art of gliding down the hill and all I managed to master was the tumbleweed. I was nasty at it, pulling a 1080 tumbleweed was no problem as long as no one got in the way of my graceful tumbling. That aside, it was awesome because I managed to start going up the mountain on lifts the very same day. Snow boarding is amazing, a whole different sport entirely. I don’t think the whole half-pipe thing is for me, but I’ll be sure to go snowboarding some more in the future! Pictures will follow sometime soon, so keep an eye out for those!

Dance till Dawn

DTD

So I heard about this thing going on on April 5th. It’s supposed to be this huge Dance till Dawn (DTD). From what I hear it was pretty big last year, talking hundreds of people, but unfortunately I was in France so couldn’t go. So yeah, anyone who’s in the area should check it out, I hear the price is going to be around 2 to 5 dollars, a good deal for an all night dancing craze. Here’s a listing of what to expect:

Welcome

Hey Everyone!

Welcome to the new miniMatt.com site! I tried using my other site as a sort of blog but the whole site’s maintenance would become astronomical to continue that way. Instead, I took a hint from a friend and now I have this running on my site. If you want updates on what’s going on with me, want to comment on the craziness, or just plain old want to talk, then you will be able to catch me here. Hope that all is going well with everyone! Keep an eye out for changes because they will be arriving, I hope, on a daily basis.
