Schweitzer Skiing Adventure , It's Been a Few Years.

Kristin invited me to ski on Valentines Day at Schweitzer.  I hadn't been skiing in about 4 seasons and wondered if I could even do it.  Did I forget?  Part of me didn't even want to try.  I pretty much gave up on skiing because I would always go alone.  This was a chance to get back at it and have company.  I joined Kristin and Lucy.  Time to gear up. The Lathrops have a locker at Schweitzer. This was one of the few times I saw Lucy.  

God's creation, beautiful.

Kristin is ready and giving me the encouraging thumbs up. 

Here I go to the bunny hill just in case things didn't work out.  Kristin and Lucy joined me. I did fine and soon I headed up the hill. 

Another Speedy Lucy sighting! 

And here we are.  I did not forget how to ski but one thing was very apparent.  I was out of skiing shape. My legs got tired so quickly. Kristin hung with me and was patient with my stopping.  I kept telling her that she could go do her thing but she hung with her mom.  Sweet. 

It was a great day.  Some sun and some snow.  The temperature was just right.  Glorious!!  

I remembered why I love skiing so much.  

The end to a beautiful day with Kristin and Lucy. I did see Lucy at lunch. Thanks so much for inviting me and getting me back on the ski hill.  I loved it.  

When I walked in the door at home this was what was waiting for me.  Perfect ending to Valentines Day.  Thanks Mike, Kristin and Lucy for making my day so special.  Love you all so much.
