First Day on the Hill!

Posted on November 12th, 2004 in Parenting, Ski with No Comments

Logan on the chairlift.I know I rant about quality of life a lot. It’s one thing to talk about it. Living it, however, is what it’s all about.

What a great day. I got lucky and an all-afternoon meeting was canceled. Wife called - said she was taking the boys skiing at Mt. Rose for the day. I left the office at 1:30 pm, was on the chair lift with Logan by 2:05 pm, skied with Logan for 2 hours, back in car at 4:10 pm and back in the office at 4:38 pm. Three hours total out of the office, two of them up skiing with my kids. Perfect! Had I not walked back into the office in my ski pants, nobody would have even missed me. Can’t do that in San Francisco.

Cody on skisLogan ripped it up for his first day back on skis. This is his third season. He turned 5 in September, so this is the year he will ski top-to-bottom with no help. After two hours with me, he was already ahead of where he left off last year. Cody’s two now and amped like his brother. He turns 3 in February so these next couple months will make a big difference. Can I say it again? Quality of life.
