With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 19 - January 28: Skiing Solo

The last time I skied alone was at Sun Valley, where I chatted slopeside with Arnold Schwarzenegger.  The time before that was at Stowe, where I met Douglas Whitla on the chairlift.  Both memorable days that turned out pretty well.  Today turned out pretty well too.  I gave Erik and Melissa the day off and took the three girls to the mountain for their lesson.  That gave me 6 hours of skiing - and reading my book in an Adirondack chair on the base lodge deck, overlooking the mountain in a surprisingly strong January sun.  Not quite Sun Valley - or Stowe - but not bad at all.
