Other blogs

If you're interested feel free to check out the Williams ski team blog at ephnordic.blogspot.com for training, pictures, and results. It is somewhat unclear who's coauthored what, but most all of its good.

Winter Study at Williams

Design Garage, or as my grandmother wrote, Garage Organization Class, has been an invitation into experience and product design. Taught by Carissa Carter (A Williams Geos Alum), our class of sixteen has been interviewing, prototyping, testing, filming, and presenting. I'm part of "The Green Eph Project" (greenephproject.tumblr.com) along with Piper Sallquist, Postyn Smith, and Ari Benjamin. Stay tuned for more design information, or just go to greenephproject.tumblr.com

Ski Season

Greetings from Bethel, Maine. I've been skiing on a lot of ice, grass, and rocks recently; so much for nor'easters. For real though, Bethel is near Rumford which is near Black Mountain which is home to a lot of manmade snow from nationals. Tomorrow I'll be racing my first college carnival, which will ideally go better than the eastern cups last weekend. A pair of Salomon Lab skate skis is ready to go, with some new snow forecast to make a fast course. Manmade snow is getting a bit boring, especially the 1.5km gerbil loops we've been skiing on, but next week promises some sort of storm. Maybe I'll finally get to test out my new carbonlites and featherlites here in New England.
