ski day

I have a whole bunch of things I have been meaning to post, but somehow never got to. I'm still not getting to it. Instead, have some photos from yesterday's ski day, the fourth time we've been up this year.

Britt and I have weekday passes at Purgatory which is about a half hour drive from here in good weather, maybe 45 minutes in poor weather. If it snows during the week, we'll go the day after (because we like skiing in new snow under clear blue skies better than in falling snow during the storm), but otherwise, we try to go on Fridays because the nicer restaurant up on the mountain is only open Friday through Sunday, and having lunch there is part of our treat for the day. (Weekday passes are way cheap compared to full season passes, when you get them at the end of the previous season, and weekdays are less crowded. I work on the weekend instead and my boss is cool with it.)
