Locked and Loaded

Posted on November 17, 2008 by Ski Bum Poet™

We went up to get our passes this morning. This is my 10th ski season as an Alta pass holder. Danette didn’t think her picture looked good, but I think it’s fine. She always looks good. Mine on the other hand…yikes. I just can’t seem to get my pass portrait right, ever. About the best picture I have had for a ski pass was the orange one in the header above. And if you look at it closely, I’m looking straight up so all you can really see are the whites of my eyes. Ha.

We’re not going to get one of those 100 day seasons of the past under our belts this year, what with Ellie now and all. But I can tell you that we’ll be in Little Cottonwood Canyon as often as we can. And we’ll enjoy every minute of it! And this winter Ellie will definitely be skiing (on my back in her Kelty carrier, anyway). A walk up the summer road, and a cruise down Albion basin with my little girl. The wind and sun on our smiling faces. Now that’s what I’m looking forward to.
