First Ski Day

The last time I went skiing was 16 years ago.  I was new to skiing then and only had the opportunity to go twice.  So when a friend told me about the great program they had at Park City I jumped at the chance for Mandy and I to go and learn to ski.

The instructors were great and I felt soooooo comfortable skiing.  I couldn't believe how quickly I learned to go down the hill.  Last time I remember skiing I distintcly remember the hills being very, very scare.  I can't wait to go back and learn more and get better so I can ski other slopes.

Best part of the day.  As I was practicing turns behind my instructor, a little girl in a bright pink coat whizzed right past me.  So cool to see my daughter burning down the hill with no fear.
Getting ready to go out for lessons.

No Parking????

Went with Sally on the a couple of Park City trails yesterday. The weather was perfect, and surprisingly we saw hardly anyone on the trail. We passed 6 riders going up and 2 coming back. For a beautiful day I couldn't believe there were not more riders or hikers out, but nothing. Maybe everyone was down in SLC watching the crit. The trails here are really nice, although I did see something funny on the trail while riding, a No Parking sign! Hmmm....I wonder if this applies to bikes. It was a funny thing to see on the trail.
I think Sally enjoyed these trails as much as I did. Check her out bombing down the hill.

We also got a shot of me going down hill. I think I am always smiling on the bike...it comes from riding with your mouth open and completely loving riding a bike.
