Green Mountain Boys

      A good dump of snow hits Vermont just in time for our ski weekend with B's family and the Ira Lapps.  We're not as big a crowd as we once were.  KC, Dan and Rachel have now retired from skiing.  Kate, at UVM, stays in Burlington for the weekend.  Megan, incredibly, is in Hanoi -- the first stage of her semester abroad.  The last afternoon, skiing with Phil, is joyous.  It's cold, but we're dressed for it.  The snow is terrific.  The light is good.  We ski quick and clean. Like this is where we're from, and what we do.
