now winter is here........sort of

my last post was about the advent of winter. I guess I was a bit off. I didn't actually get to ski until the Saturday after turkey day (and the Sunday, too) both of which were pretty good. Then the snow went away, so I started biking more. After biking in a bit of snow last Tuesday night, we finally got winter our first winter storm. That brought some good night skiing (via skins and headlamp to make it more exciting). It also brought some cold weather and ICE! I got a chance to use my pointy new ice Axes and shoe fangs. They were sweet, I was not. I felt like a turtle on its back flailing my way up. Oh well, I had fun. Hopefully winter is here to stay and I will be able write more.
