Cross country skis are narrow but the shoes are very comfortable. (I was looking for the positive.)
My understanding of this kind of skiing was that it was flat trails. I am not a fan of skiing of any kind and generally dislike the idea of putting things on my feet that will enable me to fly down a hill. So, as the past shows I fell down a lot this time. I finally found these grooves in the snow that acted like tracks so I really liked them and even went down a hill with the help of them, so that made the ending to the day ok.
Aren't these ice sculptures cool?
This is a bay that leads out to Lake Michigan. It was frozen at the shore and looked like the water had frozen in mid-wave. What a beautiful sight!
Of course Matt wanted to get out on the ice and test out the durability!
I am so very grateful for such a beautiful state that we live in and that we have been able to explore different parts of it.
