Edison Hits the Slopes...

Edison's school buddy invited him to take a ski lesson with him up in Winter Park where his family has a house.

We went up there, played in the hot tub, ate homemade dumplings, and well had a good time playing.

The next day was the ski lesson. Unfortunately his teacher wasn't good with young children and set the tone of the day on a negative note. Edison was crying when they first got there because the ski boots fit tight, he wanted Jim to stay, and well the teacher wasn't welcoming. Also kids have to wear helmets, goggles, and lots of equipment so it was hard to hear directions on what to do. So when we picked him up she told us that he had "a little bit of a listening problem." Which Edison heard and nearly made him cry. He has misgivings about trying skiing again.

Jim has been meaning to file a complaint with the ski resort but has been plum busy with daily life.

I will say this.... We will try skiing again but definitely if we go back to Winter Park will not use that teacher.

The day after we got home, I went on a trip to San Francisco with my friend. Will post on that soon...
