Pyramid

With the family in town we have been skiing every afternoon on Pyramid Mountain. Such a convenient place to go! Short drive, and you can ski right from the car. And the skiing is Great.

In the top photo Brooks strikes a pose ruining the family photo while Leo howls in the snow (not pictured). In the second photo America's top ski model shows off the form that has left her competitors in the snow (Brooks in this case). Third photo is of Dicky posing in front of the run we had just completed.

Finally, with such good snow you could hardly expect not to see others on the mountain. But yesterday we were still a bit surprised to find more than 50 Navy SEALs enjoying the snow (bottom photo). Needless to say, but we felt quite safe with our convoy of SEALs as we skinned up to the summit. It really was quite a site - big packs, guns and disciplined groups of ten or so doing their training. All of the SEAL recruits were quite cheerful and seemed to be having a good time in the sun and snow. It is heartening to know that these are the guys defending our country. Patrick
