When you hear the word “Bluebird“, what images does it conjure up in your mind?  Any specific memories? If you’re a skier there’s no doubt you’ve had a few bluebird days that have etched their way into your cerebral cortex, never to be removed.

One specific memory that I have of Bluebird is from a photo that my friend Bryan Rhodes took of me skiing “the Driveway” in 2 feet of new powder with a deep, dark blue sky behind billows of white dry powder as I was flashing a turn.

If I close my eyes and think on that day, I can still feel those turns and see that deep blue sky, the sun reflecting so brilliantly off the freshly fallen snow.

I started thinking about Bluebird from a tee-shirt contest that Bluehouse Skis is running right now.  It was interesting to see what some of the entrants have come up with.

My favorite so far is the entry below from Nick Flynn.  I hope it wins and is made into a tee. If so, I’ll surely buy it.Bluebird
