Skiing at Stevens Pass- Hugh Owen & Peter Valaas
Kristina Owen & Laura ValaasKO and I skied up at Stevens Pass with our dads this morning. It was quite perfect. Stevens was actually closed today but we were hoping that Mike would have groomed anyway and when we pulled up he was just getting ready to drive off in the bombardier. So we had fresh tracks on mainline all the way up to the top!
Owen and I did our traditional double pole from the parking lot to the top of mainline and, um, maybe I'm just a little out of shape but I'm pretty sure my arms are going to be sore tomorrow. It is nice to have Owen around, both on the race circuit and back in Wenatchee. It's like having a little bit of Wenatchee around with me when we're traveling to ski races and a little bit of the ski circuit with me when I'm at home training in Wenatchee. It's nice to have a little bit of continuity between different areas of my life.

I accept, but be warned...I've been studying for the MCAT's, and my vocabulary has increased ten-fold since our last bout. Good game by the way. For the record, I wasn't THAT big of a chess nerd as a child -- but I was a chess nerd, no doubt about it.

awww buddy! nice to have you around too!
Laura, you look really happy. And those conditions appear about as good as it gets.
I've given this some thought: when you next ski with Kikkan you should tuck in behind her and give her the what for in the last hundred meters.
Hero ! Two Old Glorys for the mother land.
