COLD!

On New Years Day I went sking with my brothers-in-laws! It was a ton of fun but supper cold! We did not decide to leave for sking till about 4pm on New Years day. It took us about an hour and fifteen minutes to get there. As we pulled into the parking lot the temp gage in the vehicle said +10 degrees. Ok, not so bad. There really was not a lot of wind. We were all ready for some fun sking as well! We skied for an hour or so and then went and ate supper, then skied some more. We noticed that on our way up the ski lift that we were all shaking because of the cold. The wind had deffinitely picked up. It was so cold that when I would ski down my eyes would water really bad, my face felt almost numb, and no matter how I tried I could not keep my hands warm. We thought that we would go down about 4 more times and leave. When we got in the vehicle, it was close to ten o'clock at night and the temp gage read -8 degrees. We think that the wind chill had to put it in the -20s' because the wind had picked up as well. By the time we got back to the cabin we were staying in it was -10 degrees out! Wow! Cold! But we had such a great time! I was super glad I went! Note to self though...sking in cold weather is COLD!
