I want to extend some huge thanks to my buddy Brian Richards and to Diane and Michael Kushner, owners of It's F'n Hot, for hosting me at their respective shops in Park City last Saturday and Sunday. I shipped four cases of T-Rev's Stiff Willi Chili Spice Mix to Utah for the promotional events and didn't have to ship any back home, so that's always a good thing! I met a lot of cool folks during the promos, and I need to thank everyone who bought a bottle of my spice mix too.
I'm also in the process of establishing a spice mix presence at The Market at Park City, an independent grocery store that expressed interest in carrying it. So, I think we can officially say that "Stiff Willi" has moved West. It's F'n Hot will even be offering Stiff Willi t-shirts for sale in the store.
Unfortunately, there were a couple bummers to the weekend, as well. On Saturday morning, 2-year-old Biggies Smalls threw up a couple times and ran a fever for about 24 hours, so his virgin voyage to the slopes was delayed by a day -- and when my wife was finally able to take him on Sunday, he was too exhausted to do any more than a couple runs down the bunny hill and fell asleep on the lift, prompting Mom to take him home.
Secondly, I wasn't able to snap any photos during either of my promotions, mostly due to the fact that my wife couldn't accompany me on either of them. I always like to document my public appearances, but this time I'll be recalling all my experiences from memory. There were a couple customers who took pictures while they talked to me -- you know who you are, so if you're reading this and would like to send them along, it would be much appreciated!
Thankfully, my wife and I were able to get a lot of pictures on Monday of our family trip to the tubing park, where Biggie Smalls really seemed to enjoy himself. And what's not to love about my boy B-Rich striking this pose in his get-up for the world mogul finals last Saturday night at Deer Valley?
And here's another one of Brian with a couple ladies at the event. Not sure which country he was rooting for.
