Cross country skiing

We sure have been having fun learning to cross country ski.  Today's conditions weren't that great--the snow kept sticking to the bottom of our skis.  Once I was sure that I was glued to the snow.  Really, I couldn't move my ski.  I didn't get much sympathy.  Sadly, tomorrow is supposed to be rainy so this may have been our last time out for this year.

And just to let you know it's not all fun and games, Dad spent quite a while cleaning the pine needles off the roof and out of the gutters.  He rigged up a rake attached to my long sweeper wand using duct tape and a hose.
