Just a lovely snapshot from the valley...it may be cold (in the negatives!) but the sun is wonderful.  The ski racing season is well underway, and our athletes are traveling the U.S...and even Europe!  I've gotten to go on two trips so far with them (and am currently writing from Schweitzer, ID in the panhandle of the state) which have been really great.  It's so fun seeing them race, and just chillin' afterwards.  Going to these ski races brings back so many memories of my own races at these same mountains, and it's so cool to be on the other side of it and see it from a whole new perspective.

Winter Wonderland
