Start of our sixth ski season

This past weekend we kicked off our ski season.   Right after we arrived to our rental house, a huge storm rolled in and took its toll on our weekend.  Saturday we headed to Squaw Valley for skiing but the weather wasn't great.  In fact, it was wet and messy and Serafina opted not to ski at all.  Leo was brave and decided to go out.  

Here he is ready to go back out after taking a lunch break.

 Tom was proud of Leo for braving the elements and getting out there.
 Our housemates were up there too, and Carlo and Stephan joined them for some afternoon skiing.

After just a couple runs, they were back inside and soaked through.  
 Can you tell Leo was proud of himself for conquering the slopes in the storm.
 The storm blew in even harder on Sunday so we spent the morning packing up while the power cut in and out.  We were on the road shortly after 12 and it wasn't the worst driving conditions we've ever experienced, but it wasn't great.  Despite the weather not cooperating, we had a nice time catching up with our ski pals and eating yummy food. We are hoping for better weather the rest of the ski season.
