Hitting the Trails

A few days back, we finally got some snow and took advantage of it and hit the trails. The weather was perfect, not too cold or hot, and we had a blast. It’s nice to have at least one day XC skiing because the conditions have been awful all winter, though I still think there’s hope for this Alpine season.

It felt weird to be on XC skis, though all this skating and hockey has kept us in reasonably good shape. We did the big loop in the meadow, and then we got home and had tea and cookies. It was one of those nice cool days (outside) spent inside by the wood burning stove together. Throw in a nap, and dad’s a happy camper. An important condition to being able to spend a nice day like this is that there is no hockey, but it just goes to show you that you can’t have it all.

Until the next time, thanks for reading.
