Corn!

With the weather warming up, the snow gets soft during the day. Almost to a slushy mush of it's too warm. This of course makes it amazingly easy for beginners to move around, as the snow is slow and very content to move when asked. What the warm weather also brings out are the crazies.

This past weekend was a day of fun in the sun while on the mountain (remember that sun screen). One of the instructors had some classy basketball shorts in their car, which of course means everyone tried on a pair. On the body, the instructor jackets had the arms off sporting a 1980s style collar up look with no shirt underneath. On the head, we raided the lost and found for hats that have been here all season, which were then modified to each instructors enjoyment. Sunglasses were a must to finish the look.

Once properly attired, we terrorized the beginner chair with a few test runs in preparation for next weeks pond skimming contests. I've got my pair of classic Soloman rear-entry boots ready to go, some old skis, and now the outfit.
