Finally, the first full day of skiing has arrived for me. Of course that is not the only first I had today. This was also the first day I found out that I am not as “in shape” as I once thought, the first day I realized my boots hurt a lot more this year and the first day I remember why I love to ski so much.
In most cases I am not able to ski during the week because I am sitting in my cubicle looking at the brown fabric walls wondering if they are slowly closing in on me or are my eyes just playing tricks on me because I stare at a computer screen all day. That is the reason why every chance I can get on the slopes I make the best of it.
I am sure many people were caught off guard by the cold air that Mother Nature sent our way today but we are skiing in New Hampshire and there is a simple remedy for that. If it is cold, ski harder. If that does not work, there is usually room at Buckets or T Bars to warm up.
It is time for me to sign off, I need to rest these tired legs and get ready for the Ugly Sweater party tonight with another day of skiing tomorrow. My body will have Monday though Friday to rest before I punish them again.
