Skiing

     One of my favorite things to do in the winter is to go skiing. My dad taught me to ski when I was around four years old, so it is something that we have always done together. We normally go skiing once or twice a year, but we are going to start going skiing more often now that I have all of my own gear. My mom normally comes with us, but she stays in the lodge drinking coffee. My dad took her skiing one time and she fell off of the chairlift both times that she went up. She hasn’t skied since. She is perfectly happy watching us in the warmth of the inside of the lodge. I hope to one day be able to go out West to go skiing. My cousins have done that, and they said that it was really fun. It would be amazing to go skiing on the giant mountains that are in the west. I love skiing and I hope to be able to continue skiing for as long as possible. My dad and I can really bond over skiing and it is something that only we share. I am very ready for it to be cold enough to go skiing.
