After learning that Crystal Mountain was offering a $62 lift ticket on the second Tuesday of each month in honor of their 62nd anniversary, I suggested to Ron that we play "hooky" for the first time in our parenting career and go skoarding together in March. After Ron checked his work calendar and I moved my tax appointment, we bought our tickets and waited for the day to arrive. After making arrangements for our three younger kids to get to and from school, we headed out today for our first parent-only skoarding day since Lia was a toddler. Although there was some ice under the three inches of fresh snow, we enjoyed our day together, exploring a ski resort that we hadn't visited since their ticket prices sky rocketed several years ago. Besides dragging Ron up an expert-only chair lift that he didn't enjoy going down, we had a fun day and enjoyed running into my brother, Eric, who had also decided to take advantage of this cheaper, ski day! I hope we can do this again together next year.
