Ski trip updates!

Looks like I'll have some good video for you guys coming up sometime next week. Today was absolutely amazing.
Highlights for the day?
Terry convincing me that one skilift was easy, it took me right next to a black diamond. This was followed promptly by me tumbling head over heels into a snowball and hurting my leg. Good thing that was the end of the night.
What about when Ed tumbled right off the skilift creating a 6 person pile up and Meghan laughing hysterically as each person crashed coming off said skilift. Ed has no recollection of this.
Johnny getting taken out by a 6 year old girl. He's now ready to take on Diamond from American Gladiators.
The old lady that Ed cut in front of accidentally when he lost control because he has NO skiing skills at all. That's when she got shitty with him saying, "yeah just go ahead and take the spot since you already cut in front of me...just stay there just stay there." Now she needs hip replacement surgery.
Tarun having the highest fall count at 21, he never left the bunny slope.
More highlights to come for sure.
On a lighter note, the cabin we are staying at is absolutely awesome. It's a log cabin in a mountain with a hot tub, how great is that? They also have a guest book for people to sign. Here's our entry.
Day 31. We had to ford the river today, dad caught 16 lbs of squirrel. One of our Oxen died, but we were able to use that for our food stores. Johnny broke his arm and we lost 3 days on our journey nursing him back to health. After stopping at a general store at the fort, we continued on. Mary got Typhoid and died. 10 more days until Oregon!
