Skiing in Banff

I'm pretty sure we are all getting big snow dumps right now... really the first big dump of the year for us!! We didn't get massive amounts in Calgary... maybe 5 to 8 cm's in the south part of the city, not bad.

I drove (on crappy roads) out to Banff yesterday to go skiing.... and they were getting massive amounts of snow. Yesterday, Banff got 27 cm's of snow... which is why I had to go skiing!! You can see that it's snowing pretty good.

The second picture down I have my downhill skis and ski boots on, but you can't even see them for the snow!! A few times as I was skiing in the trees, I got into it so deep that it stopped me dead, and I had to dig my skis out to get going again!! It was alot of fun, and it was alot of work!! hahaha...

Neil and I are taking SCUBA classes right now... we've completed our first 2 of 5 classes.... we're planning a trip to the Bahamas in June with friends that are avid SCUBA divers, so we thought that this would be a great time to learn!! Something we've always wanted to do.... ! It's going well so far, having lots of fun with it :)

I think that's it for now!! It was my New Year's resolution to write more on the blog, and I haven't been doing so well so far.... SO.... gonna start trying harder!! hahahaha!
