I sent a text to a local Tahoe buddy of mine to see if he wanted to ski today.  He’s been in Tahoe full time for the past 4 years of drought and he’s a bit burnt out.  His response is heart-felt, sarcastic, jaded, pointed, and hilarious.
This drought in California is really starting to hurt peoples’ feelings…

Very sad, but I did Tram/ N. Hoback laps this AM in 30+cm new teaching; (walk on trams) oh I did hit my first rock in 120 days at JH. I grew up skiing Squaw, and to not ski the Sierra’s wealth of terrain is very sad for all. Hopefully, you will be spared from large fires this summer.
No way you grew up skiing Squaw, because you would know better than to call the Sierra “Sierra’s”. And here in ‘Murica we measure snow in inches.
Do I get royalties for you putting my text conversation on blast w/ out permission?
no
You’re on a fuckin’ mountain, skiing down, with friends. Life is good. Drought or no drought.
