I decided to get an early jump on ski season this year.  No big trips to any resorts.  I just went to Wachusett, to shake off the rust of not skiing for eight months.

Every time I restart the sport, I’m surprised.  I warmed up on a trail on Saturday that two years ago, I was going doing constantly turning and afraid I was going to fall.  This time, no.  I just went down easy.

It was the best day for skiing.  The mountain was covered in granular machine made snow,but it was worth the ride.  I still love the sound of the snow under the skis and it was a good way to get the season going.  Just quietly and to get myself in shape again.

Yesterday Wachusett had the guns on to start the season.  I guess I was getting myself ready and they were too.  Not to mention the whole thing produced some pretty great images:
