Hurray for skiing! B and I had a lovely day on the slopes today, after a somewhat rocky start. The weather was simply beautiful today – sunny! Oh, I love the sun. Anyway, sun in Seattle means lots of skiers, so it was very crowded and B was very frazzled by the time we got through the rental shop. Then, we hit the slopes, which was great except also crowded. Then I got taken out rather badly by a snowboarder from behind and banged my head on the ground, which was not fun. After that, though, we had a great time. It was so nice skiing in the sun rather than whiteout.
Now, I’m content, exhausted, and trying not to think about going back to work tomorrow.
Have you thought about renting your equipment in Seattle and just driving out there with it?
Snowboarders are a hazard 🙂
Normally rental is really easy and quick. I think it was just bad Saturday because it was sunny – a very unusual event around here. We have thought about renting in Seattle, but B actually likes the boots they rent at Crystal, so we like renting there. However, if we have many more sunny days, we might rethink it. 😉
