I have always wanted to try snowshoeing and this year was going to be the year that I tried it. I started shopping around for a set of shoes and remembered my dad had an extra pair. I suggested to him to let me have the extra pair and I could try them out. He agreed and brought me the snowshoes. I thought it would be a good idea, since I was new to the sport, to try them out somewhere easy before I started trekking off on some long adventure

I read my horoscope for the day and it said “do not let fear get in the way of trying new things today”. Ironically the day I read this was the day my boyfriend had asked me to go snowmobiling with him and his family.

Mind you, it isn’t that we object to supporting the Christmas tree industry, but our last two farm-grown trees cost us seventy bucks apiece. And there should be more to choosing a tree than coming home from work one afternoon, bundling everyone into the car, hustling down the road to a farm, letting someone else cut your tree (what’s that all about?), stuffing the hapless evergreen into the back of the vehicle and hurrying home again.
No, we decided that if we could beat the snow into the woods this year, we’d revive a family tradition.
