Kirkwood Lessons



Trying again, if the link didn't work  This was at Kirkwood a couple of weeks ago.

Girls at Boreal Ridge Yesterday

They are the two little kids on the lower right -- who aren't turning.  I have not been to Boreal in 30+ years and was pleasantly surprised by how easy of a drive it was, and how well laid out everything was.  Afterwards we all came home and sat in the hot tub, while a lasagna bubbled away in the oven. 
It was so warm yesterday that the kids were skiing without their jackets!

They had a great time and are ready for more lessons!

Kirkwood ski lessons



Here's the girls going down the forested paths of Kirkwood, with an excellent South American instructor. The clip is 53 megs (!) so it took a lot of machinations getting it out of one phone, and onto here. 4 or 5 data transfers!


Wealthy Argentineans come up to US ski resorts to work the idyllic life as ski instructors (since its summer time down there) practicing their English, and trying to meet girls. Although I guess they're usually looking for 24 year olds, rather than "almost" 4 year olds.
