What a beautiful weekend--fresh snow and blue skies! It was a bit cold, but not too cold to ski. Although DH has been out, this year, I have not. He found my skis and boots and I dressed for the weather (I thought!). We put on our gear in the garage and headed towards the beach. Snowmobile tracks made for a semi-"groomed" feel. The beach is on a bit of a slope and I decided to follow the snowmobile tracks onto the lake--figuring if THEY didn't break the ice, I wouldn't. Half way down the beach slope, I was unsteady and couldn't remember how to stop! So, I fell, but did so with grace and no injury. :)
This picture (above) is of the next day, at Richardson--yes, even though we live by the lake, we drove over to the wooded trail. It was beautiful and I remembered to bring kleenex, water, earmuffs and my phone/camera. We forgot the dog leash. So DH had to fashion one from what he had in the car. In true "gym teacher" manner, it consisted of exercise stretch bands. Poor Milo! Tried to take a picture of it, but sometimes (and I don't know WHY), my phone camera takes the pic--it LOOKS good, but when I go to retrieve it, it is all pixilated. See?
If we were younger or better on skis, we would've just let Milo run free, like all the other dogs we encountered, but we were afraid he'd run over our skis or cause us to fall, if we did that.
