Meet my Skis

So the best thing about Calgary is that when you leave it, you can be surrounded by mountains in under an hour. I wanted to still experience full enjoyment of the mountains in the winter, so I bought some cross-country skis. They were partly a gift from my kind congregation and partly a gift from Ralph. Thanks to both.

My skis and I had our first trip to the mountains together today and it was wonderful. Here is how the world looks to my skis:

Here is how the world looked to me (beautiful! isn't it?)

Of course, it's always better in person.
