Music for Your Snowpocalypse

Chances are if you're anywhere in the US and Canada this week, you're about to get pummeled with snow, freezing rain and, if you live in Indy, no chance the roads will ever be plowed or salted (sorry -- the snow removal in this city bothers me almost as much as the entire state of Ohio -- almost).

Anyways, while you're watching Jersey Shore reruns working from home, put these songs on for some added inspiration. And yes, I know none of them are new, but they're still great and worth listening to again and again.

1. Miike Snow -- Sylvia
2. Passenger -- Night Vision Binoculars (Okay, so it's like the Stalker's National Anthem -- it's still good!)
3. Guster -- Satellite
4. Phoenix -- Lisztomania (Classixx Version)
5. Grace Potter and the Nocturnals -- Paris (Ooh La La)

Mont Tremblant

Last weekend I spent the days snowboarding in Mont Tremblant which is about an hour and a half north of Montreal. My boyfriend, a few of his friends and I were lucky to rent a very nice chalet close to the hills. The skiing there definitely beats anything we have in the Midwest, and I hope I can go back next year!

Here are some photos from the trip:

The first day was -22 degrees on the summit!
