Digging Trenches

After a nice long summer and a festive start to the new year, it's been plenty cold for the past several weeks and the local ski hill has enough snow to cut some serious turns.  Of course the ten inches of fresh that Mother Nature provided wasn't bad either.  With that in mind, I spent my first few days on the slopes patrolling.  In fact, this past weekend was one of my shifts and, as the sun was slowly sinking beyond the hills, Ieva managed to snap a few sweet pics.  This is one of those.  I don't really see the need to clog up the rest of this post with a bunch of pointless words so I'll leave you with that.
