This is a wonderful, memory-evoking story. I relate to much of it and can easily imagine the rest. Thank you!

I have a sports recessive gene, period. I loved the fact that you stuck with it and were able to enjoy!

I tried to like skiing. Really, I did. We went to several resorts when we lived in New England. There was one resort in Vermont that had me in tears all the way down the mountain. I just didn’t love it. At all. Okay, I hated it. I do think I’d like snowshoeing though.

Such a great post. You brought nice memories back, and I thank you for that. I always asked for a locals pass for my birthday each October so I could ski weekdays at Deer Valley when we lived nearby. Best skiing of my life.

A ski pass sounds like a terrific gift. So much fun.

Oh, I am! Skiing cross-country and downhill is my favourite thing in the world, so exhilarating. I grew up in the north of Sweden near the mountains so this is an important aspect of who I am.
