Skiing during Thanksgiving




Well, I made my first ski trip yesterday with Mandy. It was so flippin cold I was debating whether or not I should even go. I'm glad I went. I was sweating the whole time but it felt good to get harder exercise rather than a walk. I'm getting a little bored with just walks. I was surprised my arms were so tired from using the ski poles. I'm ready for a big hill!

I of course could not catch Berry to take a photo with me, so these will just have to do. As you can see I live in a beautiful village. I'm so blessed. It was so cold out that my camera battery died. I was too bad because at the end of our ski, there was the most beautiful sunsets. Bright, bright, orange with the mountains silloueted! It was breathtaking!

Today is a snowshoeing day! I'm hoping to plan it right so I can get a photo of the sunset.

Enjoy
