Slushbasin
Saturday marked the last day of the kids ski school. Where others see lemons, I see lemonade. Check out this photo
This picture was taken at 12:30 on Saturday afternoon. I didn’t get a photo of the parking lot, but what you would have seen was my Suburban in the front row with 10 other cars. Sure it was raining buckets, sure the kids were freezing, sure the snow was worse than concrete, but lets take a look at the bright side:
1. If I would have been skiing I could have lapped the runs without having to wait in line.
2. Preferred parking equal to what a celebrity thinks they are entitled to.
3. A seat in the lush Snowbasin lodge. This never happens!
4. My 4 year-old received a “private lesson” for the cost of a group lesson. No other parent would have dared to let their child go out in that mess!
The kids are learning early that a bad day on the ski hill is better than a good day of community service (the only other option the kids had for Saturday was cleaning the church).

Doesn’t it go something like, “Your worst day skiing is better than your best day working.”

Drove to PC with Cole to ski that Saturday and turned around and came home because it was RAINING! WTF?
