Skiing at Fernie, BC. Feb. 2007.
Hi everyone!
Finally, I was able to untangle the new Google sign on requirements and post to our wonderful blog. Please bear with me, as I will try to catch up six-months of stuff:
February 2007: I got to go to Canada to ski at Kimberley and Fernie. Kimberley was a nice area and it was a foggy. That was Day One. Day Two was Fernie Ski Resort. It was beautiful, sunny and full of powder. Because I had been teaching all season, I had actually skied quite a bit and so was surprised to learn that I was skiing very well. I grooved in some deep, thigh-high powder and enjoyed the heck out of myself. The group I went with was all retired except for me. So, basically, I skied by myself and socialized with the group. All the ski photos are from Fernie.
March: Mike moved to Boulder Montana to start a new job in a women's prison treatment facility. He likes the job a lot. It has very different clientele. We commuted on weekends to see each other.
April: I gave notice at my job and interviewed in Helena. We moved and sold the house. I was offered a job pretty quickly. In fact, it all happened very fast. We decided to use our windfall to pay off all our school loans. We moved into a small rental while we regroup. I hope to begin looking for a house here in Helena in the winter/spring 2008.
May: We are playing in our new town. There are trails everywhere. Mike bought a bike and we are just having a ball. (Except today which is rainy, windy, and yucky.)
The Southwestern Central High School 1982 reunion is on July 7th and I am very excited to be coming over. I know the "rents" will be there, too.
Our parents are old, girls. Enjoy them while you can - warts and all, so to speak. Molly put it best when describing Mother: "You don't have to say everything out loud that you think!" Gotta love them. I very much enjoy spending time with them.

See you soon. Maybe we can go to the Lakewood Beach. That would be a high point for me.
Love, Rebecca
