It sure is, be even better if she gets on skis this season. Up until two days ago, didn't think that was going to happen.

Yesterday I convinced her to take a walk with me. Told her to try walking with one crutch and just holding on to my arm in case she needed support. We covered 2 blocks in about an hour, but she overcame a major hurdle by putting weight on her foot.

Today I went skiing to Hunter, came home expecting to take her for another walk. I asked her if she wanted to go, she said a bit later. Ok, later I ask, she says yes. I ask when, she says "now". I lookup, she's walking towards me with out crutches! Lil beotch, kept her mouth shut and suprised me! Next she told me to start getting her skis ready

She's got a ways to go, but making progress in leaps and bounds, so I would be suprised if she doesn't get some turns in

while we're in Utah!

I knew she could do it!!! GREAT news!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO go beotch!!

and I mean that in the best sense!! Utah here we come!!

She's not there yet, but she's more determined than ever, right now she's on the bike, and that's a good sign.

Okay, I just got back from my week at Alta & Snowbird and all I can say is ...

You are going to be sporting some serious smiles out there.

Just remember to ignore the lack of snow in Salt Lake City. It's up in the canyons, oh, yes. Up on top of the Wildcat lift I saw a stake reading 7-1/2 feet of snowpack.
