I'm getting reports from Australia that it's currently 43C degrees, so would like to say that here in NY it's bloody freezing. Definitely the coldest weather I've ever experienced. Colder than last winter I think.

All this talk of the weather reminded me to post some photos from a recent ski trip to Killington, Vermont. It was the first time skiing for me and needless to say I spent a lot of time sitting (falling) on my a**. The trip also coincided with New Years Eve...

Every day we pretty much had the same routine - greasy fried breakfast at the hotel, then off to the slopes for 5 or 6 hrs then back to the hotel and straight into the hot tub and sauna, then off to dinner. I had a great time, but have never been so cold or so sore in my whole life!
