With the core group of veterans - Carrie, Matt, Adam - in tow, second year man John coming
into his own, and rookie Laura showing a lot of moxie, this years ski extravaganza lived up to its billing. Matt discovered the relative ease of training non-skiers, Adam showed ongoing tenacity suffering a concussion boarding (no, he didn't go to the hospital - there is a mandatory 3 day "wait and see" period), Laura found out that ski poles are non-edible, John is still clueless about crazy eights, and Carrie snagged a draw handle from the local bar.  Can anything be more humorous than six adults in a shack with no running water?  The pictures say the rest.
