Yesterday I took Ann cross country skiing in Weston. She did pretty good for only her second time out. It's been a very long time since I've skied on waxless skis - I can't say I loved it, but since I broke my classic racing skis in college (going over a jump trying to impress Reggie) I didn't have much choice. The conditions were excellent, since we got about a foot of powdery snow Friday (following a prediction by the idiot meteorologists that we were going to get 1-3 inches).
