Winter Memories

It snowed 20" in La Crosse over the last 24 hrs and reminded me of all the fun we had with Dad in the winter. Making snowmen and snow angels in the yard or sneaking under the fence to go sledding at the reservior in Greeley. The family used to go skiing every winter at Winter Park, CO where we always stayed at Grandpa Boulton's condo timeshare. Over the years I graduated from never letting go of Mom's pole to racing Dad through the mogul fields. When I started college, finals week always coincided with Grandpa's timeshare and I was unable to go. You can imagine my disappointment, so Dad made a special trip in January to take me skiing at Afton Alps in Minnesota. It wasn't Colorado but being with my Dad made it just as fun.
