MATT AND HIS MUM

A hike out to the bluffs was the grand finale to my two day flying visit...so much fun...love that boy!!!

PRINCIPIA COLLEGE GUEST HOUSE


Here is my wonderful room. I flew here the day after I passed the ski instructors exam to see Matt direct his one act play...his Senior Project.
It was called "Le Sainte Courtesan" by Oscar Wilde...excellent!!

and PLEASED!!!

LINDA-CSIA SKI INSTRUCTOR


Well here I am in my official CSIA Instructor's ski hat...HURRAY!!!

HERE ARE THE CONTESTANTS & INSTRUCTOR


I had to get up at 6:30 all four days of the exam on the hill-from 8:30 to 4:30 I had to drive home in a blinding blizzard the first day. Second day I had to chip 1/2 an inch of ice off the car...very exciting. It was so bad the ski area was closed for freezing rain, but we learned technical stuff and some on the crusty snow.
