O-H-I-O!
And I am in sooooooooo much pain today
EVERY muscle in my body hurts. I slept til 11am because I didn't want to get up because I hurt. I did do really well though. I fell only once down the bunny slope and tried the intermediate slope once but didn't like how fast I was going so didn't do it again
I am not ready for that yet. I did have a scary experience though. My sister was helping my friend come down the hill when a snowboarder took her out. My BIL and I were at the bottom already and I turned around and saw my sister lying on the ground not moving as well as the boarder. I couldn't get my skiis off fast enough so my BIL took his off and ran up there and then I stood there with my friend and bawled. Then I finally got my skiis off when I saw my sister sit up. They were in the process of calling the medics when my BIL got her ski off and helped her up. She was in pain but was well enough to keep skiing. She twisted her hip and knee and really bruised her elbow. She thought as of last night she had a HUGE bruise on her hip but had too many layers of clothes on to check. I am so glad she is okay but have never been so scared in my life and so mad at the boarder for not paying attention. Oh well, I still had soooo much fun and cannot wait to go again!

Oh I know that feeling, and its not a fun one!
I don't go snow skiing, but after going water skiing/wakeboarding for the 1st time in the summer is a killer!!
Hope your body feels better soon

Columbia, Ms.
I don't do any kind of skiing, in the first place we have no snow here.
I do not water ski either.

I figure if God wanted me to do any kind of skiing he woulda put skis on my feet when I was born.

I am a big weenie
