This week is officially the kids "ski week" holiday.
Now this is ironic for several reasons. First off, Ellie hasn't officially been in school since the last week of October. Second of all, we've got no snow in Gaming! Some of the nearby slopes still had snow earlier in the week, but with our temps hitting 50 degrees in Gaming I don't imagine the conditions are too great up there.
So instead of skiing this week, we spent it getting outdoors in the afternoon!
With friends we walked to the "Beer Well" in Gaming...
And another afternoon, we hiked to the top of Maiszinken. This would be used for skiing - but they don't make fake snow there and as you can see most of it has melted. However, enough was still there that it made it a bit of an adventure to hike up with our friends! And the kids had a blast "sledding" down on their bottoms on the way down! We walked down as the sun was setting and it was gorgeous!
So yeah, it's been a great ski week so far!
