Are you ready Ski King?
Here's a little footage of our ski trip over the Holiday break. It was the best snow that I've skied in the past three years! It was great. I have a zillion clips so here are just a few. Thank you BIG JUDE!!!!!!

2008 Polar Plunge- Ogao Memorial
Freezing! Once again, I succumbed to peer pressure and at noon on new year's day I dived into frigid Lake Michigan. Catherine was a little smarter and stayed home while Elizabeth finished her nap. With a high of 23 degree Fahrenheit, a wind chill of 6 degrees, lake water a toasty 33 degrees, I came to the conclusion that it was absolutely ridiculous what we were doing.... but that stroke of common sense still didn't stop us from going in. Todd Lyman and Ken Olson led the charge with Tim Rauch and I following. Todd and Ken kept going out to the deeper water. As soon as the water was about 18" deep, I layed down, rolled over and sprinted back to shore. I think that I was back on the shore before Todd or Ken had turned back. It was cold. My toes felt like they were going to snap off. Today made last year's polar plunge of 43 degrees look like a trip to Florida. The best part is that our good friend Roger Petersen organized all of this and then he was no were to be found. He claims that he was there but none of us quite believe that he made it in the water. I think that Roger pulled off the best practical joke of the year getting his 6 friends to jump into a freezing lake! Here are some pictures that I hope you enjoy!
