: macho skiing

t and i got in 2 solid sessions of cross country skiing yesterday at machimoodus state park...which i've now dubbed "machomoodus". we were up at 6am and on the skis by 7am headed into the darkness of the lower vista trail, the first people in the park. i guess it takes a little bit of motivation and loose screws to get up that early and venture into 18 degree temps and snow on a sunday morning. we skied for 1.5 hours and when we got back to the car the park was still empty! after some lunch and an afternoon rest we met up with one of t's friends and skied another session till sunset. this week looks to be cold and there is a chance for a fresh 2" on thursday. looks like we'll be skiing most nights this week.
