The falls from them can be just as bad if you ask me. LOL<br /><br />I do believe you that the bunny hill is not flat. If it was you would have gone nowhere fast.......or even slow.<br /><br />Sounds like you had a great trip. <br /><br />And I would so love to be 40 again.

I have been cross-country skiing, though, and loved it. It's like hiking, but even better! Skiing through a beautiful aspen glade is just so magical with it covered in snow!<br /><br />Looks like you all had a great time, especially Brandon (Happy 40th Birthday!). I'll be 45 this year. Maybe I should do something special like that, too?<br /><br />You're so brave for even doing the bunny slopes. They didn't look flat to me either! lol!<br /><br />That magic carpet ride is really neat!<br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-21001761708000686762011-01-17T20:25:33.591-05:002011-01-17T20:25:33.591-05:00What a thoughtful wife-y you are! That was one coo...What a thoughtful wife-y you are! That was one cool b-day prezzie to get your hubby; looks like he heartily enjoyed it!<br /><br />I grew up doing cross-country skiing, which is super easy. The ONE time I went downhill skiing...*gulp*...it was quite the adventure! I was up in the Canadian Rockies at a ski place that was built specifically for the Olympics. My bro and I took a short lesson on the bunny slopes and then met up with some dudes from the ski patrol who said they wanted to take us up on the slopes and teach us to ski. They took us on the Big Kids ski lift and made us go down a black diamond the first time off the lift!! No kidding, there was an Olympian up there giving a clinic. The fact that I somehow survived (and then went down the same slope AGAIN because I didn't want to look like a pussy) still mystifies me to this day. I pretty much FELL down the mountain both times (as did my bro)! Aaaahhhhh, the stupidity of youth!Frizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03084225669041286128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2132951832556720515.post-17835090575953014322011-01-17T17:59:39.388-05:002011-01-17T17:59:39.388-05:00We have all been waiting to hear about the birthda...We have all been waiting to hear about the birthday surprise weekend. Just now I logged on and read the whole weekend adventure to Brian. We laughed! You are a very good story teller! <br />What a wonderful birthday present to have given! I love that you waited until Friday evening to say "pack your bags!" He must have been freaking out!!!! <br />Good for you trying a new sport too. I agree - skiing is very much like riding. I think I posted about that once. But, as Kestrel says, "skis will not buck you off!" <br />The hot tub looks like it was the place to be with 9 tiny degrees outside!<br />Happy 40th birthday "Branny Muffs"!!!!
