The Ski Weekend that Wasn't

We have returned from our annual ski trip to the Silver Valley. We drive over to Wallace, Idaho which is just a couple of hours and ski at Lookout Pass.

We spend the night at the Hercules Inn and generally have a wonderful time.

My unfortunate beer drinking on Friday night kept us from enjoying any skiing. There was no way I was going to be able to get on to a chair lift, let alone ski.

We still drove over to Wallace and actually went on up to Lookout. I had purchased our lift tickets in advance and I wanted to be sure we could change the date. We were successful in that regard. The sad thing was that it would have been an excellent ski day. The snow was great and it was clear although cloudy.

I still have a great deal of stiffness in my knee but it is getting better. I have been taking my drugs and drinking a lot of water so I'm hoping I can get back to normal soon.

However, as noted in the last post, beer is going to be something that is verboten in my diet. That really sucks because I just made a new batch of beer a couple of weeks ago and it is ready to be kegged. I will probably have to bottle it up and give it out to anyone who likes free home made beer.
