The Opposite of Brrrr...

As a testament to the up and down weather of Denver, while spending last weekend worrying about power outages coupled with below 0 temperatures; this weekend Sarah and I played our first game of volleyball outside in near 70 degree weather. Yes that's a jump of over 70 degrees in eight days. Pretty crazy huh...

The mountains were still relatively cool (mid 30's) as we embarked on our usual weekend ski trip. Only in Denver can you ski and play in a park in shorts during the same weekend.

We had two-for-one lift tix to Copper Mountain, so we figured we'd give it a try while we're out here. It was a really nice resort, the only problem was that it was obvious we're in peak season for skiing. Lift lines were long (+20 minutes) which meant that although we probably skied about the same number of runs as usual we were on the slopes all day. We had a great time, but the extra standing in the sun provided us with pink faces and sore calf muscles.

It was such a clear day that our pictures came out great:
