Ouch. I hurt. My hip joints are sore from trying to keep myself in control going down the hill. It rocks though. Skiing is fun. I didn’t even take any breaks this afternoon, which probably doesn’t mean much being as I was only out there for about 2-1/4 hrs. I didn’t fall down and I didn’t get run over, which is always a plus.

Howdy!
Pretty nice weather we’re having, eh? Yeah, I know … I’m crazy for going to Canada on Spring Break, but in order to ski, you need snow, eh? Okay … ’nuff of the eh’s.
I drove up yesterday and it was pretty uneventful. I even managed to get those MN plates off my truck before we left and put on my temp Wisc. plate. It’s only held on by one screw, but I took some chewing gum and “secured” the other corner to the remains of a screw that the previous owner had snapped off. It seems to be holding up well, not that there’s a lot of stress on it.
I think I’m going to ski at Candy Mountain today. I’m probably a little rusty being as I haven’t skied in at least a year, so I think they have the best hills for me. I’m concerned about whether the snow will be nice for skiing on and not icy crap that you skid across when trying to stop. Stopping is kinda important, ya know?
Right now I’m thinking I’m going to try and relax tomorrow. I guess it depends on how nice the hill is and how tired/sore I get.
Yikes! I just checked the forecast and the high looks like it will be about 18. I’d like it about 7 degrees warmer. I guess it could be worse. Tomorrow is supposed to be what I consider ideal. The drive home should be nice though.
