1-16-16


So the plan to find snow yesterday was to take our friend, James skiing for his 60th birthday. We asked him what he wanted for his BIG day and he said to ski. Wish granted! :-)
By 5am we were driving towards Pinetop, AZ to Sunrise Ski Mountain. I had made a nice bed in the back of our Forerunner for Bob to sleep (at least it helped a little) and James was happily our driver.
When we arrived it was cloudy but clear. Great views from the top! Bob & James were a good ski pair cruising down run after run after run.
After only a couple long runs (yep…just 2) I hung out in the lodge with hot chocolate. I was having knee pain & just didn't want to create a bigger problem. I was not unhappy with my view though! The snow was so pretty.
Glad we did this crazy day trip and happy that Bob & James had great conditions. They had a blast!
Cheers and happy birthday, James!
