Ski Season Start
The bright pop of bright green on the cover of my new SKI -Buyers Guide magazine really caught my eye. It’s wasn’t the new Nordica Fire Arrow ski boots that really excited me -it’s the new ski clothing! Jackets, ski pants, caps, gloves- you name it. I love to shop for it.

Safe from the waves, I chatted with Charlie and the others, still in my hot pink bikini. I guess you could say...
