I survived PPW!

Yes, that's me wearing a PINK cowboy hat during my first powder princess weekend in Fernie. I must admit, when I received my ppw invite I was a little hesitant as the word princess conjured up images of the stereotypical 'make up applying, hair styling, dress wearing, high heel strutting, pink loving' princess and this tomboy wasn't quite sure how she'd fit in. Plus given that I only knew 7 of the 20 girls going and hadn't snowboarded in 3 years, it's no surprise I had my doubts.

Well, not only did I survive the weekend but you've probably gathered from my enormous grin that I had a wonderful time. I met many terrific women and disovered powder princesses originate from all corners of social classification with the only common trait being a welcoming smile, generous personality, and great sense of humor.
