Ski Weekend

This weekend I went up to Northern Michigan to go to Boyne Mountain with some of my friends. We left on Friday and I just came home tonight. I had a chance to ski all day yesterday, which was a lot of fun! It's the first time I've ever skied outside of Tahoe, which was weird, but still good. I lucked out with the conditions because it wasn't icy yesterday! Last night we also walked to one of the slopes (my friends cabin is right off some of the slopes) and we walked all the way up one run and sledded down! It was so long and crazy but really fun. Walking up the hill was hard, but I made it. It was so weird to go so long and fast in the dark without any lights! Luckily the night sky provided enough light to show me where the slope was so I didn't go into the trees. We also saw some fireworks which were really awesome.

When we woke up this morning there was a ton of fresh powder! It was beautiful. I didn't have a chance to ski today, but I played in the snow a little and we p,aged some card games and hung out. Around 3pm we headed out to drive back to Ann Arbor. The roads were not really plowed so we had to go slow for the beginning of our drive, but we made it back safely. We also stopped for dinner in this little town called Frankenmuth, which is also nicknamed "Little Bavaria." It's similar to Solvang I gather, but German instead of Danish. I am always up for German food so it was great.

When I got home I watched the end of the Ravens beating the Patriots which was awesome and then played in my inner tube water polo game, which we won 10-1! I have felt bad all day, but thanks to Afrin I can now breathe, and getting in the water actually helped as well yay.

I can't wait to watch the HarBowl in two weeks! My Niners are so close to a Super Bowl title!!! Lets all think good Niners thoughts :)
