This morning I had to choose between a road ride with my DBF in a group ride he organized or skate skiing alone on the mountain. I decided to ski. It was glorious and I skated for a little over 2 hours and 15 miles (just shy of 25 km). I'm so glad I did. I needed the space and the freedom of gliding across the snow without any pressure of having people with me. The views of Mt. Hood were indescribeable.

Happy, happy.
