Alright 13 below last night...FREEZING!!! Besides it being so dang cold things are good! Yesterday we were on the mountain all day in this freezing cold. We practiced the Bi-ski stuff. We practiced moving around with our ski's on pushing them and turning them without people and then with people in them. We practiced loading them on the chair lift and off the chair lift. It was pretty fun and it kinda felt like driving a racecar...AWESOME =) After lunch we started actually putting people in the chairs which is kinda scary. This is mainly because if you accidentally dump them they are strapped in and can't get out of it so they are stuck lying down on the snow til you get to them. My biggest worry was accidentally dumping my person into the pit in front of the chair lift. When my turn came I was pretty nervous especially because I was steering Brian (a 6'3"ish guy) around with the help of Tim (who is smaller than me..) Between the two of us it was interesting especially when it came to getting the chair of the lift. As it turned out I ended up dumping Brian off the lift and then managed to get hit by the lift myself...honestly a very funny sight had it not been us!
Last night was pretty dang cold and walking down to town this morning was still freezing, I thought my ears where going to crack off like icicles. Today we are heading to Jaime's house for Thanksgiving with all the other loners who are left here. There's only 5 of us left here so it's a bit more quiet which is nice. I'm looking forward to my 4 days off here so relax, catch up on sleep and hopefully get on a snowboard. Off to cook our portion of the Thanksgiving dinner!
Miss you all
xoxo
