So of course my blog posting continues to be sporadic. I think the main reason is because I am lazy about uploading pictures to my computer from my camera and I guess I think my blog is more exciting when I have photos to share.
Anyway, last Friday I took a day off work and went skiing for the first (but hopefully not the last!) time this season. We had free passes from going to see the Warren Miller ski movie, so we went to the Canyons. Sean (my brother in-law) was able to come last minute because we had an extra pass, so it was fun to get to hang out with him. I started the morning by having breakfast at Henri's house with his mom and dad and Bekah and Izzy, so it was a long and full day, but lots of fun.
I basically skied alone because John and Mikey were snowboarding and Sean alpine skis and does so much faster than I do on my tele skis. I actually like skiing alone though because then I can go at my own pace and I don't feel like I'm waiting for anyone or that anyone is waiting on me. We only skied about a half day, but it was enough for me...I need to get my skiing muscles in better shape for next time. It's also interesting to meet all sorts of people on the lift...plus I got to go in the singles line so I never had to wait; it was great.
Even though I'm not that good, skiing is one of my favorite sports/hobbies and I hope to get to go more this year so I can get better. There is nothing like the view from the lift and from the top of the run...and as cliche as it is, Utah truly has the greatest snow on earth!
