Days 90- 92!

Well the 3 day weekend is officially over and now we get to begin this new journey with J being a SENIOR cadet! Holy crap. Now that CTC III-16 has graduated, J's class is the new senior class- but they need to earn their senior privileges and survive this next week first. Because it's just their class at the academy, they're going to have ALL the attention on them 😳. J said each room/ quad is going to see who gets gigged the most this week... I don't know whether to laugh or feel bad! 
Anyways, J, his brother & his girlfriend got in around 1am so naturally Saturday morning we all slept in a little bit. We had breakfast, did J's laundry then went out to explore! We took them out to Lake Tahoe and the drive was AMAZING! There were walls of snow that were HIGHER than at least 7 feet! We had lunch at this delicious Mexican restaurant then walked around town and walked over to the lake. It was GORGEOUS! What was crazy is we had to walk through snow, then sand to get to the water! We drove back because it started to get super windy and the clouds and storm started to roll in. We went back home, hung out & had dinner then all watched a scary movie. Sunday we woke up to MORE SNOW! The backyard and neighborhood was covered and it was still coming down. After some coffee, J, his brother and me all went out for a nice snowy run. We got back, had food, then all took turns letting J practice his arresting techniques. After that, we hit up one the casinos, walked around one of the really big & awesome sporting stores here, then went out for ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI 😍🍣. We got back, played some games and drank some beer, then headed off to bed. J and I woke up around 6:45am and found out the main highway was closed AGAIN. Let me tell you, the winter storms have not been kind here. One ski resort has already had 679 inches of snow this year alone, and the 48 hour total for the summit on the highway we drive was 56 inches and counting. The rest of the gang woke up, talked about the route they were going to take, then started to get ready. They were all packed and loaded and on the road right around 10am. They hit some serious traffic since that was the highway EVERYONE was taking, but I'm so thankful J wasn't alone this time. He kept me updated on their drive and got back to the academy around 6:15pm 😳. He finished unpacking and getting ready for the week, and I just hung out with my mom. We're practically halfway y'all!! Only 77 more actual academy days!

92 days down.. 102 to go!
