Today was a very late start especially since we were planning on driving those extra few minutes to Pico. We were almost to the Donkey when Kim remembered that she left the iron on. I was all for taking the risk and skiing a few runs then calling it a day but she wouldn't hear of it. Exact quote "if you think you are mad now wait until the house burns down." And there was Lola to think about. Poor little ting.
We didn't get on the mountain until 12:30 and headed straight for the infamous yellow chair. It looks like a lift right out of my childhood. Even so we still managed 11 runs and close to 600 calories. The snow was soft there. Not so much for the rest of the mountain where it was skied off. The light was flat. Overall I think I will have to give it () () 1/2 snowballs. No new snow and that damn iron being the ultimate cause of the reduction in snowballs.
Injury count: second to last toe on left foot (too small of boot for a friggen old skier), top of both knees when I get up to get a beer, right rib injury for riding the rusty pipe for far too long.
Tomorrow I'm going telemarking. It's supposed to snow some. Until then,
Sarah
PS A huge cheer for Lindsey and Julia!!!!
