Day packed with pure ski fun

Yesterday, after doing some refinishing work on the kitchen wall early in the morning, Evelyne and I headed for Deer Valley to ski. There, we first met Jim and Jean O’Malley, our Florida friends, who had just arrived into town and skied with them for over an hour. Then, after warming up on Sultan Express, we both had a quick lunch and hooked up with Ken Block, Chris Hartley, Ingrid Niehaus, Roger Neiley and some friend and started to ski like crazy around Sultan, Mayflower and Wasatch. For most of the day, the temperatures remained quite cold, the skies were blue and the snow just incredible; well groomed and powdery, and it’s only at the bottom elevations, and at the very end of the day that it became a bit slushy and more like… April snow! There was a lot of very fast skiing, good laughter and great company. At three p.m. we were done and headed for home where some dry plaster was awaiting us…
