The Red Balloon

A beautiful, windless, perfect ski day in the French Alps. We skied our socks off from lift opening to lift closing.

We're meeting friends today, so I'm looking forward to following Keith around the slopes. He's a great skier and knows the area like the back of his hand. His wife Joan and I will have lots of catching up to do as well.
