Moon Skiing

I know I've been terrible about updating lately. My time on the computer at home has been lessened since I spend all day on the internet at work. Granted, I mainly hang out on sec.gov, but I do take quick looks at the news throughout the day. When I get home, I'm not all that interested in surfing the web or playing around on blogger. On the weekends, I feel like I'm under a ton of pressure to do anything that doesn't involve a computer.

Today I actually have a couple of links and ideas to blog, but, alas, the night calls. We're heading up to Loveland Pass tonight to ski under the (nearly) full moon. I've never skied backcountry. I've never skied Loveland. I've never skied at night through the trees. I've never skied at night on runs that weren't properly lit. I'm a little apprehensive, but I'll be with a group of seriously good skiers, so it should be just fine.

There will be six skiers and at least one huskie, the blind version. Sonny and Don have two huskies, but I don't think they're coming along although I am certain that Marley, the skinnier and younger of the two, would love it. I'm going to try and talk them into bringing him. If we get stuck or stranded, it would be nice to have another huskie to eat cuddle up with.
