cute, if cynical. My brother taught himself to ski backwards in about 60 seconds... he got the hand/eye genes, I think.

Me too!
However this article puts me in the mind of my eight year old stating that she will be the next "Flying Tomato".
I began to pray for her safety and my sanity as soon as she said it.
This is the child who is too scared to ride a bike.

I like snowboarding and skiing a lot. I sit here in Mississippi and watch it all the time on TV. A man has got to know his limitations. I personally participate in riding on or in bicycles, horses, motorcycles and boats.

This one is my favorite of all! Hilarious! Skiers are Republicans...lol! Barry's generalizations match up perfectly to my generalizations.
Not a fan of snowboarders...unless I'm watching the Olympics where they are well out of my way and voting district.

I think I will sit in the lodge beside a warm fire drinking hot chocolate with Harm. Of course, that will be after Harm and I have tried dog sledding and he has dumped me in the snow several times and I am on an advil diet. :(

Saw my first snowboarder about ten years ago at Mt Hood. I knew at first sight that they are not from this planet.

horsesI just started horse back riding lessons about 4 months ago
Something I have always wanted to do and I love it!
Doesn't take long being around horses to want one of your own
I really like a breed called Paso Fino
This Paso Fino Palomino Stallion is gorgeous, isn't he!

Not completely no
Maybe I shouldn't have gone for a walk?
Its chilly here, 28 and kinda windy
The biggest thing is that the barometric pressure is still high 30.28 and it needs to be in the 29. range
So it makes it hard for my muscles to relax...:>
AND I gotta to go do homework, read about 25 pgs., take a short Quiz and do a 150 word answer
I am putting it off, obviously...LOL
BTW thanks for asking
