Dismal Spring Weather

 


Ever since last Tuesday and that glorious ski with the dogs (click here for post) it has been raining and windy.  On multiple days we have had inches of rain. Pretty dismal.  On some days rather than go skiing I took a nap.

Rather than skiing I also took the dogs to Buskin Beach.  Late afternoon has coincided with low tides, and I have enjoyed the waves that go forever across the low tide flats.  The water goes both ways - in with the new waves and out as wave backwash.  The water movement creates all sorts of refraction and deflection waves.  I walked along in 6 inches of water and watched the show all around me.  And of course the dogs raced back and forth across the flats.

I've also still gone skiing.  Yesterday Stuey and I went and it was pouring and very wind.  With a misery index more akin to an epic big mountain expedition than to an afternoon ski on Pyramid.  But we had fun, and both agreed that the skiing was excellent.  When I got home I took a very hot shower.
