Wednesday 2-21 Cold and Rainy

Cold rainy day

The cold and rain have arrived. It barely got in the 40s and it rained on and off all day. It felt colder considering there was a north wind.  

Larry has found a rack for the back of the motorcycle that will allow him to mount a tote box, with that we can carry a few items with us as we ride. Unbelievably it is not available via Amazon, it is manufactured by a gentleman in California, if you pay him via a Postal Money Order he will take 20% off of the price. This morning we went to the Post Office and got a money order then we stopped and paid for the Minnie tags. 

We haven't been snow skiing in a couple of years so we decided it was time. When we got home we got our ski equipment out. The ski bag was filthy so Larry cleaned it. While checking out the equipment he found that our ski masks were falling apart. To Amazon he went to find new ones. He was in luck, we should have new ones tomorrow. Next piece of equipment was our boots. The cushioned liners are beginning to fail on Larry's boots and they are a bit tight. You certainly can't buy any snow ski gear anywhere nearby so he will have to live with them or rent something. When he was cleaning the boots he found that the bottom of my boots were missing a couple of pieces, it won't hurt anything, they have probably been missing for years. We will see if we can find replacement pieces at a ski shop in Colorado. All of our equipment is clean and ready to go on the trip.

We spent the evening watching the Olympics and YouTube videos. We're excited about going our snow ski trip.  

Let's hit the slopes
