Getting on snow after a week at a conference. Thank goodness!

Cross-country skiing in northern Vermont on Saturday.

New Orleans on Thursday: High of 70 degrees and humid.

Northern Vermont on Saturday: A couple of inches of new snow and 13 degrees.

Which would you choose??

I didn't have a choice as I was a conference. (OK, New Orleans didn't suck and I learned a lot at the conference!) But I was so very happy to get home and out on the snow this afternoon!

Vermont experienced rain while I was away. Very sad, indeed. But thankfully it snowed last night in northern Vermont. It made things white again at our local cross-country ski center. The Skimeister and I hit Catamount Outdoor Center this afternoon for a nice, groomed loop of skiing in the woods.

We look forward to doing more skiing this holiday weekend. Because of the recent wet-turned-frozen weather, groomed trails will be the way to go.

As fewer ski areas remain open in Vermont, and warm temps continue to melt away our precious snow, it's important to take advantage of nice days to make some spring turns! We flexed some work time…
