Christmas in Maine with Mom
Gianni and I spent the 4 days after Christmas in Rockland, Maine with mom. The first day was a cozy indoor day avoiding the rain. The second day Gianni and I skied at Camden Snow Bowl for the first time. Only the lower mountain was open, so we enjoyed riding the t-bar all day. We took a break for lunch and went ice skating at the local rink, then headed back for some more turns. It was Gianni's first day alpine skiing of the year. The next day we headed back up after some fresh snow. Gianni used his telemark skis and successfully worked on developing his tele turns. The last day we had to pack up and drive mom to Logan Airport. The highlight of the trip was spending lots of time with mom and enjoying the many great restaurants each night! After dropping mom off in Boston, we turned around and headed up to Stowe, a nine hour day on the road.
