I have a loose tooth, but it wasn’t the tooth fairy who came this week. The ski fairy came and left a pair of skate skis.
I tried them out on Saturday. We had great conditions and lots of sunshine. Everyone was spent by the end. Here are two videos The Mother took.
On Sunday we had our first powder day since Christmas break. It was pretty great despite the Presidents’ Day holiday crowd.
Here’s another video. That woman just won’t let me do anything without shoving a camera in my face.
All my activities make me hungry. I wanted a ‘small’ snack last night after dinner.
Just in case you can’t see – it’s fruit salad with chocolate chips in a TWO CUP container.
This week our country was Panama. We had Panamanian stew.
We also had a Thai Crunch Salad one night:
Reminds me of the skate skiing technique I just saw from Beijing. On to Milan, Em.
Good skiing. Looked like you were doing moguls on the downhill video. I’m all in for the Panamanian stew.
A skate fairy??? Do you think there’s a car fairy for Nan😂😂😂😂 I know. How about a vacuum fairy😏😂
I think you are a super skate skier and downhill skier and I wish we were there to see you in action but are very grateful for the videos.
The stew and salad are more keepers.
Pop should be there babysitting this week on your week off. You could’ve taught him a thing or two about skiing👌
So amazing Emmett, it’s going to get hard to choose, skate, classic or alpine! Glad you are enjoying yourself and taking advantage of the snow
I’m with Nan; I’d like a vacation fairy. The 2026 Winter Olympics is maybe a bit too soon, but it looks like 2030 is a possibility! Love, Uncle Jim
Fantastic skate-skiing, Em!! You go like the wind! And your Pine turns are pretty impressive, too! How wonderful that your conditions are so good now…. keep enjoying! ❤️Nana
