Tuesday Jan 5 2016 - 1st ski

Cycling was the order of the day until our 1st snowfall Dec 29 2015. Pete MacLoghlin, Peter Hamley, Barry Diceman, Keith Buchanan & Arndt Kruger met at 10:00 on a cold but sunny winter day -15C. We skied the Tanney loop, the only trails that are snow covered, & the temperature did climb to -7C by the end of our 11 km ski. The ski conditions are good considering the lack of snow but rain is in the forecast for the weekend so we may have to get out the bikes again! I sent this rhyme to Bob & his mates in Florida
                    Greetings from snowy old PeterPatch
                    Where the weather allows us to match
                    Either skis in the snow or bikes on the road
                    So we have a choice between these 2 modes!
Peter Hamley took this photo outside the Tanney cabin with his phone as my camera had frozen!
meanwhile the Pennys are soaking up the Florida rays!

I cycled to a downtown meeting on Wednesday Jan 6!
