Arlie hadn't gotten a chance to ski with the kids this year, so we decided on the very beautiful Saturday (where the weather was 57 degrees) to try out the end of the year skiing. It's a strange feeling to be driving with your skis in the car getting excited to ski and seeing NO SNOW! ;)
Fortunately at the ski hill there was still probably 2 feet plus of snow. However....the snow was SOOOOO slow! It worked pretty good for Sydney because she gets a little scared going fast down the hills. She was able to down a lot more runs because it was so slow. In fact, you had to push your way down some of the hills. Not quite so fun for the rest of us who actually enjoy the speed in skiing. We actually saw GREEN grass on the hills (it is a golf course in the summer)
"Where'd the snow go?"
and laughed at the lack of snow all around the hills. All in all we had a great day. We left earlier than we had planned because we were so tired trying to push our way down the hills. We ended up skiing without gloves and in long sleved shirts. The kids had a blast and got to show off for Daddy and that's what they were most looking forward to!
On the chair lift!

Hot stuff!
