Life with Griffin

More Snow Bunny Action

We went up to Lake Tahoe to give Griffin an introduction to some of the cultural heritage of his Swiss bloodline. We met up with long time friend Brian Lee & family, for some ski adventures, and boy did we get an experience!

First day up, we went to Squaw Valley. It was a beautiful perfect day for skiing & boarding. Well, that's what we all thought. Griffin not so much. He didn't really want to be left at the ski school. Once we got reassurance for the ski instructors to blow out of there, we snuck back to see him riding up the magic carpet and schussing down the slope!!


The second day we thought we would try Northstar and this was not what Griffin really had in mind! After a morning of calls from the ski school about Griff's unwillingness to go outside, they finally said come pick him up! The good thing was they were willing to let us attempt a private lesson. This also looked like it was going to snowball down hill, but thanks to a great ski instructor name Tim, Griffin got some more runs down the mountain!
