coldy.

man it was brisk on saturday. but, since we were 'up north' visiting robin's parents, there was outdoor activities to be done. i snowshoed on the lake for 1.5 hrs and then we did some cross country skiing at dusk. it was beautiful with the snow and setting sun. saturday was an all around relaxing day...where you don't feel bad sitting on the couch watching tv. especially when the women's 4x5k cross country ski is being covered. i'd really like a set of skate skis but man it's tough to justify the $500 or so investment...i mean we really don't get much snow anymore. that being said, i'll be skiing just about every day this week...should be fun.

on the way home yesterday we skiied at nine mile. they charge a lot but really do a nice job of grooming. the full 10k loop had two sets of classic grooves groomed in...unheard of in southern wisconsin. plus the conditions were perfect...would have been a great day to skate.
