Hear! hear! for an extra hour of sleep every night!
Who do I ski.......er.....see?
I know a few folks here who love to ski, but I think it would give them serious pause to try Panorama - what passes for a ski hill here is really quite pathetic!
Gypsy, I'm a ski virgin, too. I've done a little cross-country, but downhill - except for watching experts - really never caught my interest. I'll sit and sip chocolate in the chalet any day, though! Hot tubs are also very, very nice:)
YAHOOOOOOO! It's this time of the year again! I am SO excited for you!!! I looooove snow, although I don't ski, LOL. I love to sit by the fire in the shelter. Lovely people too, the skiers ;)
Welcome back, Marietta! I hope all is well for you - it's been a bit of a rocky road, hasn't it. I know you remember my countdown from last year...
You're righteeoo, Gypsy - it can be the most boring day of the week... unless you go to church - Ohhh Nooooo! ... I mean unless one spends the afternoon in the great outdoors on a mountain bike!
Oh, you fluffy-white-stuff-on-a-hill virgins don't know what you're missing - and Marietta's right - the folks are great!
Hey EL, I spend as many evenings as I can in the hot tub! Unfortunately we don't have one of our own... yet ... so we have to borrow! Apres mountain biking works well, too.
... and an extra hour of sleep tonight!
ReplyDeleteNow that's something to get excited about! (the sleep bit)
ReplyDeleteWe are due for snow at the end of next week, apparently. Blah.
is this what the count down was for then??...
ReplyDeleteYes, Anne-Marie, the extra hour of sleep does raise the excitement bar... I think we should have an extra hour every night!
ReplyDeleteAnd Gypsy, you are correct... it's the countdown to the first day of skiing at Panorama.
... although, we might take a day in November to go to Lake Louise which opens earlier for World Cup ski racing.
On opening day, I take the kids out of school and myself from work to hit the slopes - the schools are all but empty that day!
well it looks so fresh...ive never been skiing before..my sister goes skiing in sweden with her family but ive never fancied it..
ReplyDeleteHear! hear! for an extra hour of sleep every night!

ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for the hot tub...
Lets hear it for all apres ski activities!
ReplyDeleteIt's not just an apres ski activity EL...
ReplyDeleteCrap!
I am presently missing a soak in the hot tub with the requisite bottle of wine because we don't have anyone to look after Jenny.
I now sit at home (out of the hot tub) with a crisp glass of wine to top off the evening.
ReplyDelete... the cat has his face shoved into Jenny's left-over glass of milk on the hearth.
YAHOOOOOOO!
