On Feb 6 Brad's brother Benji and his wife Shawna flew into town to go skiing for the weekend. So Saturday morning just Brad and I headed up to Bachelor with Benji and Shawna. It was nice to leave the kids behind and not have to worry if they were cold or hurt, or waiting for them to get down the hill. We spent awhile together going down one of the little hills and just before lunch Benji and I left Brad and Shawna to go explore some other runs the novices could go down.
It was a beautiful day: little wind, blue skies, warm temps and not bad snow. They couldn't have picked a better weekend!!

After lunch Benji and I scouted out a few more runs and then took Brad and Shawna up one of the bigger chairs, and they made it down... eventually. I think their confidence is better now, and next time they'll conquer that run like it was nothing :DIt wasn't really until the end of the day when I finally kinda got my groove back. I figured a really hadn't been skiing "for myself" since I've been married because I was helping Brad learn how to ski, or my kids. It was exhilarating to be out there again and can't wait to go back!

Looks like such a good time. I don't know if I could snowboard again.. I feel like I am too old. ;-( BOO
Yay for a fun day with adults only! I am starting to appreciate those more and more :) It is absolutely gorgeous up there! I'm so glad you guys had such a great time.
Thanks for showing us a great time! We had a blast--I still daydream about some of those runs!

Excellent shreddage photos! If only we were there to catch an edge with you guys and experience Mt Bachelor ice burn.
You guys picked a beautiful day to go up. I bet you had a great view of the Cascades up there. I didn't know you skied Tracy?
Sounds like YOU had a good time. Did Brad 'find his groove'?
