Ski time!

On Thursday, Dennis and I went skiing in Wisconsin with two other friends. The drive to the ski resort, Devils Head, took over three hours. It was my second time skiing (my first time was in PA two years ago) and I was anxious because I remembered falling a lot the first time. I started out warming up on the bunny slope and you know what, I didn't fall once. I guess my body retained some basic moves. Maybe it's like biking, once your body learns the skill, it doesn't forget easily. In any case, I definitely felt more comfortable skiing; it was time to move on. The rest of the day, I skied on the green, the blue, and yes the black slope (although only once). I can't claim I'm a good skier yet (I fell 3-4 times), but I am definitely getting better. Skiing on the black slope was really scary. I was hesitant at first, but then I thought, well what's the worst that can happen? Falling down isn't fun but at least it doesn't hurt. I knew I would regret it if I didn't try it, and so I did. Wow! What a rush! All I can say is, I can't wait to go skiing again.
