Virginia got 22″ of snow!
What better time to go skiing we thought. Add to that it was just before Christmas and Ben had the day off.
We drove to Ski Liberty in Pennsylvania first thing and got there and togged up for the 12:00 class. We actually got there for the 11:00 class but turns out I have weird sized feet that weren’t happy in the ones that should go up to size 9. I got pins and needles, had very bad pains in my legs and was all ready to give up and go home because I thought it just wasn’t for me. A bigger pair of boots later all was hunky dorey.
Turns out i’m a natural
The only time I fell down all day was getting off the lift (or trying to unclip my skis). I loved it! The feeling of racing down a hill huge mountain, only slightly out of control, was amazing. I can’t wait to go again.
Ps. I had to attend the First Aid station due to a pretty nasty lump and bruise that was caused by my watch when I fell. I have therefore popped my skiing injury cherry!
Both of us on the lift.

Me in motion.
