We once again participated in the annual neighborhood ski outing organized by our friends Rich and Joyce.

Again this year, about 50 folks from our neghborhood boarded a luxury coach at (or just before) the crack of dawn for the ride up to Bretton Woods. It was a gorgeous, though cold, day and the snow was awesome!

Unfortunately, Shawn’s knee wasn’t cooperating so she decided to play “Ski Bunny” and spend the day by the fire (after a run-in with the law as she tried to scalp her lift ticket). John skied with the boys on and off or they skied with friends.

The boys are great skiers these days! They can ski every bit of terrain the BW has to offer and even tried out some “Big Air” moves in the terrain park. (John only gets big air right before unplanned impact with the ground.)

After skiing, we all ate dinner together at the restaurant across the street from the slopes and then settled back into the bus for the ride home. Even did a brake test in the left lane at one point – but that’s another story.
It was a grand day out and we had a blast! Big thanks to our friends for running this trip again!
