Despite how hectic the whole college search has made every day of this year, this week was possibly the best week ever! For starters, the mountain was incredible. The entire hill was covered with deep snow but the sun was out and the jackets and hats were off. I’ve never been more stoked on a crucial case of snow-blindness, a beet-red sunburn, and sopping wet gear! It was pretty cool!
But it gets better!
The winter routine (a.k.a. sleeping and snowboarding) was over! I spent this entire weekend outside with my bros. We would ride until noon-ish, come down the hill into town for a frappe or slice, then cruise on bikes and skateboard until it was time to shower and go out for the night. It was like a preview for this upcoming vacation, which will be awesome!
But being outside this week has really got me thinking. This is going to be my last spring time in Stowe for at least four years. It made me realize how lucky I am to have grown up here and be exposed to this beauty. I don’t think that there are too many locations like ours that have so much to offer at all times. Even though I’m getting pretty antsy to see what else is out there in this country, I’m glad to know that I can call this home.
Well, right now it’s almost 60 degrees and it’s a half-day at school.So I’m going to mosey on up to the hill to chase some epic shred!

ST.com: How has moving to Stowe changed you?
Keenan: Moving to Stowe was the best thing to ever happen to me! Now I'm always active, always having the best time, and always repping a huge smile! Not too much to be bummed about here!
ST.com: Since these are the last days of high school for you, what are your plans for next year?

ST.com: Tell us some of the things you love to do and what you like to read and listen to.
Keenan: I'm really into having fun! A lot of schralping on snow, trying to skateboard, posting up at the coffee house. You know, the usual! As for music, I listen to anything that hypes me up; Hyphy, Electronica, Miley Cyrus. I haven’t been reading that much recently, but I do dig Dr. Seuss. I try to keep up with whatever Oprah requests. She's on point.
ST.com: What's you favorite food and favorite color?
