Great way to start 2008

On the first day of the new year I went cross country skiing for the first time and I loved it! It is probably one of the best workouts you can get. Liz taught me all the techniques but I still managed to wipe out at the beginning of our adventure.

You definately don't need many layers when participating in this sport. Sometimes I like to pretend I know what I am doing.

Liz looks like a pro going around Spooner Lake.

Then on our way home we stopped to watch Tahoe's amazing sunset. Hiking in ice is a different story.

This is one of the many reasons why I want to live here.

I will never get sick of that view.
