FLCC> Swandrome Wednesday

[Glenn Swan]

This may be just a little bit of a stretch, but I suspect others are as 
desperate as I am, so I am declaring that the first "Swandrome" night of 
the season will be tomorrow (Wednesday) night starting at about 5:00 and 
continuing until we're too tired to ski any more. (might not be very long....)

Weather forecast is for COLD conditions, so make sure you find your warm 
clothes. (better yet, plan to buy some at the bike shop!)

I dragged the grooming sled around the skate trails this morning (Tuesday) 
and although it still turns up plenty of leaves and twigs and other 
detritus, there is now a thin packed base and there are relatively few 
places where anything solid will grab your ski bottoms. As Dave Ruppert 
notes, there isn't much cushion there, so if you fall you'll land on 
essentially hard frozen ground, but we're all so good that we won't fall 
down...will we ? It was snowing lightly as I came to work, and it is 
supposed to continue, so being optimistic I'll hope for good conditions and 
good friends to ski with.


C'mon out !  Let's get this winter started.

WEDNESDAY night.  Spread the word.
