Ski bunny


I have been lucky enough to have been skiing a few times in my life. I do not profess to be a good skiier by any stretch of the imagination. A good day of skiing to me is not a black run but a day without falling over - EVER. I have managed this a few times. Normally the skiing adventures are hilariously funny. Like this photo - I remember being quite happy with myself that I had managed to keep all of the skiing accoutrement on my head without it blowing off - I did manage though to get all tied up in quite a tangle - I looped my goggles through my hat, through my ear muffs, through the ski pass - and well then it wouldn't come off. And of course it was totally photo worthy as I'm pretty sure Leesy J and and I were in fits of giggles about it all. Perhaps it was delirium that made us find it so funny - because our ski instructor had basically left us for dead and we had to find our way back by ourselves. We were nearly run over by a snow tractor as a part of the finding our way home adventure thing too. Our happiness when we reached the bottom may have been rewarded that night with some nice drinks at the bar...in the warm...

Do you remember how long it took us to ski past that blinkin snow tractor?? I have laughed out loud remembering that day -it was super fun (once we were sure that we weren't going to have to be rescued off the slopes - crossed skis and all :) Good times, good times:):):):):)
