Snow Day

In early January we took off work on a Friday and hit the slopes! It was the third annual Poconos trip with Ross' high school friends. On the first day we tried a new mountain, Camelback. With high speed lifts, no crowd, and nice runs, I think this one is a keeper. This year I ended up being the only girl with five guys, but I held my own. There were even a few occasions when they got schooled. Afterward, we stopped off at a brewry at the base of the mountain. Let's just say if you go to Barley Creek Brewing Company you have to get the soft pretzel and cheese. I was so glad when Stephen finished his pretzel because then I no longer had to be polite with my cheese usage.

I didn't go out on Saturday because the temperatures were high and it had been raining through the night. We did take the group pizza at the lodge and Ross skied a few runs. Saturday night consisted of lots of football. The Denver/Baltimore game was so good, but after trying to explain the rules for overtime for about 10 minutes we came to the conclusion that the rules are too confusing.
