Dare Devil


I learned how to ski when I was 6ish. My parents started us young. But in my whole skiing career I have never been on a black diamond run! The 'scariness', if you will, of the ski slope is rated by three different shaped and colored signs. A green circle is the easiest, blue square is medium, and black diamond is the...SCARIEST! Today I conquered a black diamond run! Why now, as opposed to years ago when I didn't have a child to raise and a husband to take care of...yeah, I don't know either. P.S. A black diamond isn't as bad as a double black diamond, there was no risk of death involved-trust me.
