It comes by night

Oh my dear Bubba's, I awoke last night to a feeling of intense pain on my back. I do not know what it is that I did but I have a muscle cramp that makes sleeping difficult. Its that painful.

I probably should not be typing at the keyboard but, Meh!

The weekend just past saw us do our first family trip to the snow! We all manged it very well logistically. Little CJ is good traveler (for her age) she managed to sleep most of the way to Mt Hotham and back. She is also a very relaxed little lady and is comfortable in all manner of settings (pubs, hotels, restaurants etc) and even more happy to have a crowd (much like her Dad) to entertain.

The snow itself was okay... Very icy and cold on the lifts. But the big win for me were the Demo skis I tried. They were a pair of next seasons Atomic Blackeyes, very comfortable, great edge and highly maneuverable. Not fast, per se, however my fitness level this year is well below last years so the speed thing is less of an issue.
Those skis did not let me down the whole day, which is more than I can say for some of the previous models I used last year.

So although we only got one day in for the skiing it was a worthwhile road trip to take the whole family away. Looking forward to our next trip!
