Ski at home

One of the most notable features of our yard is that it is very sloped. After leaving the showing of our future house the thought popped in my head, "Hey, I bet I could ski down that". Nice idea but small problem. We first saw our house in April. Ever since then, I have been waiting for enough snow to strap on my short skis and let gravity take care of the rest. It finally happened recently. Jess thinks I'm nuts, but knows how much I've been waiting to do this, so without questioning much she pulled out the camera to document this moment. Unfortunately, this may be the only skiing I get in this year. And yes... it was worth it.
