A FEW POWDER TURNS

Connie and I spent the morning skiing some powder at our little resort.  They said they had 16 inches of new snow, BUT we think it was closer to 10.  It was good though.  The roads were a bit icy going up this morning.  Ike and Brenda did not go because of their steep road getting out of their place.  Not many people up there skiing but most of the group we are friends with were there.  We had a great lunch with them.  Most are in their 60s and 70s but still skiing up a storm.


Connie's morning did not start off so good.  A spare battery for her mp3 player somehow got into her boot!  What really puzzled us was she did not notice it until we were skiing down.  So she walked around the lodge, walked out to our skis, put them on and skied down to the lift and rode it up to the top without knowing it was there.  When we got to the first cat track going down, she stopped and got it out.



Not the light fluffy powder we like, but it was powder.
