The Boy and a friend took in a bit more sledding at the golf course today to start the New Year, but our main outing of the day was to Willard Mountain to get measured for rental gear and pick up ski passes ahead of our skiing season, which starts this weekend.
The mountainside looked promisingly snowy - a very different sight from this time last year (in fact anytime during the whole of last winter) when there was only ever homemade snow to ski on.
So, now we can look forward to Ski Sundays again...but before that, back-to-school (*groan*). Yep, the winter break is over. We're none of us too excited about getting up in time for the Girl's bus tomorrow morning, especially as the temperature is predicted to be -8C.
Back to school already! Never mind -youll enjoy seeing it get a bit lighter every morning and like the skiing it will be downhill for a few months
ReplyDeleteI hate the bus, it smells of feet,it's dirty and everyone is stupid and shouts to much. The bus driver never talks,except for the occasional "SHUT UP!", it's always wet, and they never turn on the heating. Far cry from when I was 7, as I have been reliving lately through the medium of this very blog.
