Off to Tremblant
Dec. 30th, 2013 06:18 amI'm off to Mont Tremblant today. I haven't skied in more than a year, maybe a few years. We'll have to see how it goes. Will I still remember how to do it?

Skiing was good. A bit chilly. Ok, quite a bit chilly: the high hit -20C (plus, there was, as always at Tremblant) wind. Apparently, I can still ski pretty well. Always good to know.
Now, though, I'm exhausted. 4 hours driving and a solid day of skiing both contributed. But what really didn't help was that they decided to do snow-removal on my street, so from 1am to 5am there were intermittent but frequent periods of truck reversing beeps. And they sound far too much like an alarm clock. And I knew I needed to wake up early. I went to bed a bit after midnight, I got up at 6, and I'm pretty sure I didn't sleep much between 1am and 5am. I even tried ear plugs -- nope, not enough sound dampening.
