With the snow piling up after what felt like a week of constant snowing – I felt it was finally time to get those skiis out of the attic and put them in their place of honor (?) right inside the door, ready to jump out at a moments notice. As always, you can buy a card to the ski lift, or if you’re unwilling to wait until they start – you’ll just have to walk up the hill, like me!
