It's Dumping in Sochi

 

 

It's Dumping in Russia

It is Dumping in Russia!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My alarm went off at 7:00 and all I could hear was the rain poring down on the roof.  ”Should we go?  It’s raining.” “Well we don’t have anything better to do.”  It took us 45 minutes in the rain to reach the top of mountain.  We were soaked to the bone by the time we reached the top.  Our first run was a lot like skiing mashed potatoes.  After a few runs, the rain turned to snow and our tracks started to refill.

The snow continued to fall.  The skiing was great in the afternoon, but I have to admit it was the wettest day I have ever skied.  Tomorrow should be off the hook!
