We are very hesitant to even call it a hill, but there is a little ski hill-schen (or hill-ita for the spanishly inclined) near our place. KT got a job there teaching ski lessons so that the boys could ski for free. after a few weeks she was able to bring them, drop them off at a lift, and come back at the end of her shift to get them. They could even rock those east-coast black diamonds!
