It's All Downhill From Here...

     Get outta my way!

     I'm headed to Western New York to celebrate my sister's birthday and play in the snow for a few days. The forecast doesn't look very promising, with unseasonably warm and rainy weather until early next week. But there will be beer in the fridge and an outdoor hot tub to soak in, so we can improvise if necessary.  

     
     I put on quite the Nordic exhibition the last time I was there, starting with the very first run, which consisted of me sliding backwards on my ass as my pants filled with snow.
     It would be hard for me to convince anybody that I grew up in snow country and was once a regular skier. Of course, when every free moment for over 20 years is spent traipsing the beach, winter sports tend to suffer.
     My hockey game must really be rusty right about now.
     I'm bringing my MacBook and hope to post some pictures over the next few days.
     I'm also hoping to avoid serious injury. 
     Happy New Year...
