Born-again ski instructor

This holiday season, I ski everyday with my daughter and my grandson. 

To put it simply, in spite of skiing mostly on man-made snow and very limited terrain, we’re three crazy speed demons dodging other skiers and having lots of fun, even though our ages almost span a human lifetime: 12, 38 and 72 respectively!

This worries me a hell of a lot though, as I don’t want anyone to get hurt or to hit someone and yet, I can refrain from letting these boards go fast when given an opportunity. 

That’s my quandary, as I’m supposed to be the pacesetter and the law-and-order element of that gang, but it’s so fun to be having so much fun in a three-generation ski outing!
