    Matty's at it again, Downhill Skiing, Kilted

    Another incredible sunny day here in Northern Utah, So when Daughter #1 called and invited me to go skiing with her, How could I not. Utah is famous for it's world class skiing and snowboarding, but a well kept secret is a small family resort just 50 miles north of Salt Lake City, (only 33 miles from my house) called Wolf Mountain. Morning temps were in the teens by noon it was around 30 degrees. However the fresh air and sunshine were PERFERCT. Truth be told I did start out in Ski pants and parka but by noon I was kilted. My fingers were a tad bit cold and my nose a little rosy, but the rest of me was exhilarated by the fresh mountain air.

    Looks like a great day to be on the slopes.

    So Matty,...we've seen you kilted while X-country skiing, and downhill skiing.

    What's next?

    Snowboarding?

    Matty: Looks like a great day for skiing with all that sun. And, you look like you know what you're doing. But, I would still rather have seen a shot of you doing a helicopter off a mogul just to see your kilt spin out like a ballerina skirt.

    By the way, there is a ski area north of us just over the border in CO called Wolf Creek. It is in the same meteorological snow band as those northern Utah ski hills and gets LOTS of snow - more than any other area in CO and so much that it has been known to close for "too much snow".

    The best of all possible worlds: snow, sun and a kilt. Who could ask for anything more?
