Spring Skiing

Margaret at the top of Alpine Bowl

Margaret and I went to Tahoe this weekend to get a little bit of spring skiing and boarding in. We figured this was our last chance. On Saturday, we were kind of tired, so we didn’t do much skiing, but we did take a long walk. We went to the oven in Page Meadows and then to the rest of the meadows and then we bushwhacked down to the road. It was lots of fun.

On Sunday we went back to the slopes. Margaret went to the top with me for the first time. It is now her most favorite run. We were both very sad when we had to leave.

Spring Break (and Katy’s Birthday)

Katy's Birthday

This week was spring break for the kids. We were in Tahoe, so Susan, George (and Daisy), and Mary came up for Katy’s birthday. We did lots of skiing (Margaret was boarding of course). Jax (and the kids) spent time on the mound of snow next to house. We hiked down to the creek.

Easter

Easter

It was Easter. Katy was kind of sick so no one went to church. We did have an Easter egg hunt in the front yard.

Elizabeth: Katy was very sick. We spent several hours in the ER the night before because she was having trouble breathing. Turned out she had croup, which I did not know 12 years old could get. She missed a week and half of school. The rest of us have been a bit sick, but not nearly so badly. Rusty is the sickest right now.
