Or falling on it is closer to the truth.

In case you didn’t get my Meaning,I fell on my rump. I heard that expression when I doing a mud run a few years ago and I thought it was great and now I use it often.

I got a real treat when some of the classes I was supposed to co-teach this Week were cancelled, so I was able to extend my time at home to a week! This is the first time I’m home for more than 2 days since the project started in February!

So…Yesterday I decided to go skiing. First time in a while!

I did some work in the morning then headed to Keystone, I knew I would Work when I got home. I got to the parking lot, geared up and walked to the gondola only to find out that Keystone closed for the season the day before-pook. A very nice EMT offered to give me a ride to my Car, so nice!

I Kept my Ski boots on and drove to A-basin which was just a few miles Up the road. Parked and headed to the lift, almost closer than the gondola.

I did a few runs, the snow it as wasn’t as Soft and fluffy as it’s been, a little slushy, but not too bad. I decided on the next run to head higher up. Some of these blue square intermediate hills were a little more, well, intermediate, some a little Steep, but I came up And there’s only one way down.

there Was one Section of a slope that was particularly steep and there were three of us wondering what we had gotten ourselves into! One woman sidestepped her way down, I decided to have a sit down and while I sat there, I realized I wouldn’t be able to get my skis back on so I held them and the poles and slid down “on my personality”.

It was actually fun! I slid and stopped and slid and stopped until I got to the bottom of this one short hill, then got up, put my skis back on and skied back down the mountain.

I had some lunch and headed home, got more work done and then called it a day. All in all, a good day.

and… happy to report, my personality remains intact!
