So, I was wrong... and apparently I don't really have any idea how to use this blogger thing... but anyway, I was wrong in saying that I had posted 2 in one month. The first one I wrote in response to a comment (thank you by the way!) to get my butt in gear and start writing again. The good news, I wrote a new post - the bad news, I did something to botch it up and lost half of it. After getting really frustrated I posted what was still there and said I'd come back later. Well, I should put the emphasis on the word THOUGHT because when I went back to view my recent blog, it was the only one on there. Sweet. So... I apologize, not only for being a slacker, but being a dumb slacker!
Just wanted to give a heads up on the Birkie this past weekend... I give the race guys a lot of credit, they took a bad situaation and made it really fun. Even though the event was extremely close to being cancelled, they pulled it out by making it an untimed fun ski where waves were allowed to go out at their leisure (waves 1-3 could leave between 10:45 and 11:15, 4-6 between 11:15 and 11:45 and 7-10 anywhere between 11:45 and 12:30). They groomed all night to try to scuff up the ice and I would say that it turned out very well for their efforts. People were very polite in not rushing people on the hills and being to aggressive. It was fun and the conditions were not as bad as anticipated. Even better, we got credit for doing the race (even though it was shortened) and everyone had a good time! Even me who was deathly terrified of it, even before the ice... I managed to survive and ended with a smile on my face. Good job birkie people!
So, that being said, I think that's all I have for now... it was a fun weekend! Snow came a little late, but it came eventually and in the meantime, Madison got slammed! Snow shoveling's good for back strengthening right :)
Take care!
