Excellent!

Posted on February 19, 2005 by Ian

Good to see Scott’s posting now! Terry and Viv are up next. Come on! It’ll be the clearing house of Williamson/Spencer/Spence/Levensohn information. Don’t miss your opportunity! If Scott keeps it up, I’ll have to make it a little more clear who posted what…

We, as a family, went out to Panorama for four days this last week to do a little skiing. The conditions weren’t that great, very icy. They haven’t had much snow this year and after some warm days, it got COLD and iced up. Ah well, you’re at the mercy of the weather. Both Dylan and Quinn were snowboarding and I skied. Shelley stayed inside and read books. Both D and Q have improved a great deal this year. I basically sent Dylan off to ride wherever he wanted to and Quinn stuck to the bunny hill, but could consistantly make it down without falling and remaining in control. Dylan was good enough to handle anything. I went with him on a couple runs and we tackled some black diamonds.

We were staying in a timeshare condo at Fairmont Hot Springs. Really nice accomodations, and the price to pay was having to sit through a 2 hour sales pitch. Not too bad. The salesman we had was actually very nice and not too “high pressure”.

After skiing and feeling HORRIBLY out of shape, I’ve decided that I’m going to take up hiking again. The views in the mountains were great and I don’t see why I can’t go see them whenever I want. I’ll let you know how that goes.

As for Nelson’s “N/A” weather icon….it’s really weather.com’s problem. That’s what they tell me the weather is. Scott, if you can find a weather site that has better information than weather.com, at least for Nelson, let me know and I’ll see if I can build it in.

    That’s it?! Mom said you were upset that I hadn’t replied to you and that’s the best comment you could come up with?! Ha!

    This is the strangest medium for family discussion I ever did see. Viv and I went geocaching on Saturday and found two of them…first chance out of the house for a while. Went to Tim’s choral concert tonite…he had a duet thing…did real well…clearly you can see his old man’s brilliant voice in this next generation. Lotsa snow now…about 8 inches yesterday. Bloody blizzard, actually,,,we couldn’t even get to Milwaukee for Tim’s indoor soccer game. Oh yeah, you’re bigtime potential bear food, Ian.
