We Norskis recently got back from a ski trip. It was highly enjoyable. (Where we got the money to drive there and back from our destination and also to purchase our lift tickets, I am uncertain. Ask Knute.) We had unbelievable snow and weather conditions, and I think we all improved as far as technique is concerned. (I being the most challenged in this area of all the Norskis)
The thing about skiing is, you have to learn to let go of the fear of losing control and crashing down the mountain...and ultimately landing in a tree-well and suffocating to death. I have had the most trouble of all my siblings in mastering this art of not being afraid, but finally, this time around, I was able to let go... for the most part.
No one of the Norskis has gotten seriously injured in this sport yet and we happily hope to be on a mountain again in a few weeks.

Well it sounds like you all had a great trip! It is, however, unfortunately enough for me, that I have a great fear like the one you have described above, that may prevent me from doing lots of activities such as Skiing. Perhaps, I may get over this uncertainty, and venture into the sport of Skiing.
