Ski Holiday

A picture named 139-3978_IMG.jpgMy brother and his stepdaughter are visiting this weekend, and we’re doing a ski sampler of places that we can drive to from my humble abode in Seattle.


Yesterday, we went to Snoqualmie Pass (on I-90).  I haven’t skiied in 5 years, and I was never that good anyway.  Snoqualmie has a lot of long, easy runs, and I felt like I got my “legs” back, never fell all night.


Today we went to Stevens Pass, and I was quickly disabused of that feeling.  I got onto some slopes where I just lost confidence in the ability to turn-turn-turn and get to the bottom in one piece.


We’re going out tomorrow, either back to Stevens, or maybe to Crystal Mountain, and I’ll try to get my mojo back.  If I can’t get there, I’ll just hunker down in the lodge and blame my equipment.
