Before Cam's first time hitting the slopes this season, he had an unexpected snow day on Tuesday. A combination of freezing rain, snow and sleet produced a weather advisory until 4pm.
On Wednesday, the roads were clear once again and school was back in session. Cam finished up tutoring with Ms. Ann in the early evening and had a quick dinner. Jane and son were off to power soccer practice since Chris was a bit delayed with a meeting. Cam's mom had to laugh that on her "watch" the front guard came off the chair and two other dads were enlisted to assist with positioning it back in place.
Once Cam's dad arrived at practice, all of the background information was provided as he explained the entire situation during a break in the action.
We were anticipating our weekend activity at our local ski resort, Cannonsburg. Their opening day was very delayed with Thursday, Jan. 18 being the first official start of their season. There have been years when they have opened in November! Our delayed snowfall definitely affected their options.
Thanks to Mary Free Bed Wheelchair Sports program, we learned about the adaptive ski organization a few years ago.
Sunday was our first session after two cancellations due to the lack of snow. Our team leader was Jason, who was with us last year in the same position. Jessie, a med student and lifetime skier was new to ASAWM and excited to be a part of it all. Chris completed the official volunteer training to be assigned to Cam's team as well. Jane was allowed to ski with the team as an extra blocker.

Camology Quotes:
Jane shared some exciting news about dear friends in North Carolina. When she said in passing that Ali was working as a nurse now, Cam mentioned that his mom did not tell him when she graduated from nursing school and passed her boards. Jane apologized to which Cam responded with: "I respect that, Mom. We all forget sometimes."
