Ski day-trips, I'm looking forward to it!

Winter is supposed to be cold and white, in my little ideal world.

Back in Melbourne, we had an annual weekly-trip to Mt Hotham a snow mountain every winter, it's a 8-hour drive one way.

Here in Seattle, I'm constantly told that how close the ski trails are and how convenient the ski trips are.  And I'm very excited and looking forward to my first ski season this coming winter,
