At the beginning of the winter I mapped out the best lift ticket deals at the ski resorts within an hour's drive of our house. Shawnee Peak specials are great on Monday nights ($10/adults from 4-9 p.m.) and Wednesdays (all day) when an adult buys a lift ticket at full price, the junior skis free (and the second junior is only $10). And then King Pine has great specials too with skiing on Saturday nights from 4-9 p.m. for $39 for a family of 4; and 2 for 1 specials on Tuesdays.
So since it was Wednesday, we headed to Shawnee Peak.
L. and I were heading down the mountain when G. snapped this picture with her digital camera. She was feeling quite smug that she can now handle a camera on the slopes.
We're never without some Flat Stanleys to entertain these days. The conditions really were ideal and we spent about 5 hours skiing/boarding.
We seem to love the footwear shots.
Of course, the day was not without some drama....
I got a blister from tying my snowboard boots -- and they still weren't quite tight enough.
L. lost a ski getting onto the chair lift. A helpful girl in the chair behind us brought it up the mountain for her. It was an interesting glide off the chair lift for L. with one ski.
If you look closely, you can see that G. had an imprint of a Christmas tree on her leg from her tight ski boot. "Mom, I am SO not wearing these socks skiing again!"
