Did somebody say skiing???


A sign of things to come???
Today I got to see my first big snowstorm.  In total there was about 8" in just 24 hours.  All that to say that Dad took the opportunity to teach me about skiing.  I even got to try on his boots!!

Turns out that Dad and his family did a ton of skiing growing up - I guess you could say it is in my blood.  Mom likes to say  the only condition of their marriage was that she learned to ski.  I think dad still would have gone through with it - but she swears not. . .

I like to think I am not under the same pressure since Dad is already "committed" but I guess it is possible he would disown me if I didn't learn ;-)

Well dad stands ready to teach me - perhaps next winter???  I've always said [black] diamonds are a girls best friend.
