Tomorrow I will cross country ski as it might be the last time with winter snow. There will be lots of spring skiing but I'm not too good at spring snow conditions.<br /> Have a great day!Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688207620251526295.post-64671971232117009892011-03-09T09:40:22.584-07:002011-03-09T09:40:22.584-07:00Yes DJan, I have heard "pick Me" and it&...Yes DJan, I have heard "pick Me" and it's very apropos.
