Terry,
I am so glad that you went skiing and had a blast. I am looking forward to doing the same next year. BTW I think that skiing is easier on your body than biking over the bumps and potholes in the road. (my perception) I guess doing what we feel more comfortable with is the key and looking out for the crazy's on the slopes or roads. I hope that you are feeling better now? My friends think that I am nuts for wanting to ski again but it is the one sport that I am really good at. You get personal gratification for doing those activities. I also don't think you can hurt the the discs once they have been in for as long as yours but I guess it's wishful thinking. I skied after my neck fusion and the only problems I had were turning my head all the way over my shoulders to look out for the boarders that were on my heels. Now I probably won't be able to bend over to latch my boots. Anyway, so glad that you had fun. Phylly

Thanks Phylly. I am feeling really good again. It took about three weeks after my two SI joint injections to start feeling better but I am there. I am anxiously waiting till Spring to get back on the bicycle. We got 14" of snow the other night so Winter has not left yet. Soon!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you are doing better as well. Hang in there.  Terry Newton

Todd:
I went night skiing. The radio station 98.9 had a special they sponsored, so you could get a lift ticket for $9.89, which is unheard of here. I love night skiing as there is something about the darker evening/night skiing that makes my fear and inhibitions go out the window. the next time I go i will have my friend take a picture of me in my Klem Kadiddlehopper skiing outfit. Terry Newton
