March 13, 2007 - Skiing in Wisconsin











Greetings!

Dan's coach from his basketball team thought a ski trip to Wisconsin would be a great way to end the season. Nearly 40 of us went to Devil's Head (about 1 hour north of Madison). The conditions were spring-like and everyone had a ball.

My friend Ann is quite the photographer. You can see her fine skills in the accompanying photos of Tom Terrific.

Dan has state testing for the next 2 weeks. He is just about finished with the reading program having met 95% of his goal. This accomplishment secures him a spot at a Cubs game in May. Last year I "had" to chaparone the readers to see the Sox. I have a feeling Tom might be interested in this year's trip. Dan loves the books about Eragon.

Things are looking like spring around here. The snow is almost gone, the ice on the pond is melting, and the farmer is getting antsy.
