I live in the NW corner of Arkansas and while we have some cold weather, a little ice and snow, we don't have enough to ski, not that I would want to ski. But, I do love the snow. This year, there is a shift in our weather and it has been in the high 60's and 70's. It makes me ill. No coat weather, not hot chocolate weather, nope, not at all. I travelled to Houston over the last couple of days and the low was inthe 80's. So, hearing about snow and cold and all of that makes me extremely jealous. Have fun on your days out on the slopes.zelda1https://www.blogger.com/profile/04212809913449846878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-1136478156476625822006-01-05T11:22:00.000-05:002006-01-05T11:22:00.000-05:00I love to ski too!

And that predates the era of the snowboard. I don't even have a clue as to how hard boarding might be but it certainly looks fun! <BR/><BR/>anbruchanbruchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08727308256705442613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-1136471116742048862006-01-05T09:25:00.000-05:002006-01-05T09:25:00.000-05:00Yay Jo(e)!

He turns 1 in a month.

Well, I was in my mid-20s. Six years ago I broke my arm on Mt. Hood -- slammed into a tree -- but even so I never was scared until I had kids. Now I'm just waiting for a bad fall to snap my head off.<BR/><BR/>My husband is going snow-cat skiing tomorrow.
