Sk. Trp.

OK, it's a fairly convoluted way to note that this past weekend, I took an abbreviated ski trip. (Get it?...I abbreviated the words, "ski trip.") Due to my classes, I could not leave until noon on Friday, while my wife and son went up a day earlier.
I had to cut my one day of cross country short, with a blister developing on my right heel. (If I was a tough guy, I'd have popped it, pressed it flat and continued on...and had I had another pair of socks with me, I might well have done that.) As it was, I did an hour plus of solid activity, and felt pretty happy that it was comfortable.
