Glad we weren’t hoping to ski locally.

Weather up into nearly double digits on the plus side of the Celcious scale makes skiing a tad difficult. Glad we are doing something different that isn’t entirely reliant on the snow for our enjoyment. I’m holding reduced office hours this week so that I can play with my kids while they are still small enough to want to. Took a shovel outside to dig out trenches in the waist deep snow for them, and to bolster the sledding hill off the side of the driveway. It’s all very, very wet and also icy somehow. If it’s not slush, it’s fast!

I figure we could cross country ski fairly easily for atleast another few says if we wanted to, but going downhill skiing seems like a lost cause, atleast as far south as Stouffville is. My guess is people had to head north to Collingwood, or even farther to Quebec to get good snow and cooler temps. Considering we are supposed to get up to 13°C with pouring rain I’m glad we didn’t book any type of ski trip. Luck of the draw I guess. I do miss skiing, downhill or otherwise. Put the equipment on the list! A next year purchase maybe? Although I bet all that stuff will go on sale as stores move onto spring & summer related offerings.

Happy Tuesday, I think.
