REVISED: 1st of many ski trips

I'm REVISING this post and adding pictures that I came across today to add to this Ski trip: some were out of sequence...
So as I've been sorting pictures into piles, I know I saw more of these trip pictures, and will run across them somewhere down the line.. But this is my blog post of a fun memory where we went to Brianhead Ski Resort in UT in Feb. 1991 with my parents and some of their friends.  Brianhead is at a high elevation and while Greg and Brian did pretty well the first day or so, it totally kicked there rear for the rest of the trip. Brian skied one day, loved it and than just preferred to nap, so did the day care, and the rest of the days he just slept in the daycare from altitude sickness, as we hydrated him and Greg who also did alot of sleeping.

But this was our first trip skiing and we did it nearly every springtime with the kids until they were in High School and sports calendars ruled the day.. We skied Brianhead, June Lake, Mammoth Mtn., Mt Baldy, Big Bear..  great times as a family.
