My favorite Olympic athelete.

This is Liz, for all of you that don't know her she's having the time of her life right now in Vancouver skiing in the 2010 Olympics on the U.S. Ski team. Liz is someone I clearly identify with as she loves what she does and she lives life to its fullest and does it well. I'm lucky to have met Liz as she stops in at the local shop I work at in downtown Montpelier when she has time to say hi and hang out. Just ask Liz and she'll be the first to tell you she has the best job in the world which is what makes her my kind of person. May we all find that zeal and courage to follow our dreams and find happiness I'm sure its a little different for all of us but may you find it well.

So here's to Liz who I'm sure has a smile on her face as I type this because that's just the kind of person she is. May you ski like the wind and have the time of your life.

Cheers

White Gold

Well out of all the events and hype in the Olympic games I think everyone has to agree that even if you don't know the man you know the legend. Shean White is "the" half pipe master. Half pipe riders even took upon themselves this year to push the envelope to challenge White and the whole sport with moves such as the double cab cork. White not only embraced this challenge but reinvented the sport all over with his signature double McTwist 1260 which he landed on his victory run. Gold in Vancouver was all Sean White was thinking about now he has it; again.

Vonn finds Olympic gold.

As everyone wondered what would happen Lindsey Vonn ripped the downhill race of her life through the pain and injury that put all her olypmic dreams in question. She proved that she indeed is the best womans downhill skier of her time, now she has the gold to prove it.
