Sunday, February 3rd: Skiing

Today I had to patrol, so I put in a full day of skiing. We got another 18" or so in town last night, and even more up on the hill. Therefore I spent a good deal of time shoveling snow before I headed up there. Last night we had both trucks parked in the driveway, and since my wife was coming up with the kids later in the afternoon and she needed to take the 4 door truck I decided to help her out and move the other one out of the way since I was up (I got a ride with another patroller to the hill since I didn't see much point in driving since the family was coming up later). I got all the snow off of both trucks and parked my lifted truck on the sidewalk so that the snowplow could get all of the road.
Once we got up to the hill we had to help move all the tower pads up because of the new snowfall, which can be a lot of work. After we finished that I was all about skiing the fresh powder. Unfortunately the snow was a little on the heavy side, so you had to work a little more. Yesterday's snow was much better. I spent most of the afternoon teaching my 2 year old son how to ski; it was his first time
When I got back to town I saw that my other truck had been plowed in and was stuck bigger than shit I wanted to get it out before the snow bank froze hard tonight, so I spent the next half hour trying to dig it out. We had dinner plans over at my parent's house, so I decided to take the wife and kids over there and get my dad to come help me get my other truck out. Between the two of us we finally managed to dig and pull it out with the family truck.
Needless to say, I am not going to lift today because my legs and back are tired as hell

Saturday, February 9th

No lifting today, but I got a pretty good workout in doing other things. I went skiing for a few hours this morning, then came home and shoveled most of the snow off my garage roof. That was a hell of a workout, because the snow was almost 7 feet deep in places. I'm still not quite finished, but it shouldn't take more than probably 30 minutes to finish (I just worked on it until I fell off, then said **** it).
My next project will be to cut a path to the side door of the house, because all the snow that came off the roof is now a giant wall blocking the door.
Tomorrow I have to patrol, so I'll be at the ski hill all day, but I'm going to try and hit calves & bi's afterward.

I decided not to lift yesterday because I was exhausted after a full day of skiing. My knees were killing me by the end of the day, and I felt that another day off from lifting wouldn't hurt.
