Fun in the Snow


I am indeed a fan of snow, but this past weekend was a bit much. It snowed for three days. Granted the accumulation wasn't as dramatic as that sounds but it still meant shoveling, brushing the car off, bundling up to go out and peeling off layers once back inside. Repeat that a few times and you've got the idea.

After having some rare time off from work, I took full advantage. I got a lot of things done and finally got to try out my new cross country ski poles. After my spectacular lack of coordination caused me to bend my poles last year, I got another pair.

They worked perfectly and it was great to be outside. The sun peeked out for a few minutes, the snow was fluffy and it felt so good to shake off the cobwebs and get a good workout in. I was very happy and had a huge smile on my face when I walked in the door. I can't wait to get back out and go again.
