And then you'll be sore for days..

Saturday was the day, my friends.

The highly anticipated, long awaited day. We won the Lott...hehe. No, we went cross country skiing!!!!

It was so many different things all rolled into a high adrenaline, four hour event. Everyone says "it's just like walking!" Let's be real, it's nothing like walking. Nothing. It's a full body workout and your body won't forget it for days. It was stunningly beautiful out; thick powdery snow with a constant, fresh layer coming down. The trees, the hills, the peacefulness of being just a tiny part of the bigger picture. I love the nature here.

Going down hill is pee your pants scary. You have these tracks your skis are meant to follow, but to slow down you need to lift one foot out of the track and make a v. All the while going too fast for comfort. Lets just say I fell. Three times. Hard.

It's an amazing experience and I will definitely be going again. Just not anytime soon...
