Heck yeah we’re headed to the slopes. They aren’t but an hour or so from here and they have been making snow for a long time. It got cold enough to make snow early this year. Then there’s been several times that it snowed up to 6 inches at a time so there’s man made and real snow on the slopes.
Mom got me some new skis for Christmas and my grandmother got me some new ski clothes too so I would be warm enough. She worries too much about me. Well I was her first grandchild and she helped raise me while Mom worked but then when I was almost 8 years old, my sister was born and Mom stayed home and took care of her. Anyway, I can’t wait to try out my new duds and skis.
The last time we went skiing, Shane fell and ended up rolling head over feet down the hill and then rolled right into a tree. It was the funniest thing I have ever seen until we realized he had broken his leg. Then it wasn’t too funny. He was out of wrestling for the rest of the year too. That sucked because he’s a great wrestler. It really hurt the team last year but hopefully nothing like that will happen to any of us this year.
