Jeff and I took our cross country skis out today; it had been at least 3 years. What a blast that was. The two pictures that I am posting were taken just moments after Jeff denied my request to abort searching out a "hike in" cabin and take the easy trail. His exact words were, "this isn't the hardest trail". It did indeed get easier, but not until Jeff took his skis off and walked up the hill and fell down a half dozen times. I also nearly did a sommersault over my right shoulder. We finally got some momentum going and Jeff fell again going down a hill in front of me. If laughter is indeed good for you, I have been healed and will probably live forever. We think we'll go again, maybe New Years day.
