Skiing combines outdoor fun with knocking down trees with your face. ~Dave BarryEric and I wed nine years ago on St. Patrick's Day. To celebrate our anniversary, we ditched our kids, and headed up to Crystal Mountain for a day of skiing.
I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die
It was my third attempt at this insane sport. There's nothing quite like wiping out on the "Tinkerbell" run and being passed by 2-year-old ski squirts and their 90-year-old great-great-grandmothers. Eric was very patient and didn't want to ski alone, because I was "very entertaining to watch."
At the end of the day he commended me: I will nearly be able to keep up with Alex and Isaac on the slopes.
I took Abe rollerskating for the first time the other day and his comment was, "I'm never doing this or ice skating or anything like it ever again. I just get beat up." There is some wisdom there.
