Continuing Guest Fellow's request that non-Muslims interact with Muslims in threads that aren't just about debating.
I was really looking forward to one aspect of this weekend, on Saturday we had our on-snow clinic for instructors at the ski hill where I sometimes work. It was just machine made snow, and none of it had been groomed, but it was still fun to get back on skis.
Then over night the real stuff came down in one of the bigger storms to pass this way in several years. We only got a couple of inches at home, but not far from here they had as much as 6 inches. While that's nothing for those who live in the north, we're down here in southern Illinois and sometimes don't see that much in an entire year.
I have to admit it had me as giddy as a child wanting to play in it. Can't wait till we official open the ski hill this next weekend.
