Mt. Hood Day 3

       Today Madison ran warm-up to perfection. After a delicious Hucks breakfast we went to ski above the clouds. It was colder than it has been the past couple days, which caused the snow to stay hard all morning. And, today was the lovely one-ski skiing competition. This competition was won by the one and only Miss Bridget Currier, followed by Nina and Anna E-B.
       After we arrived back for lunch, we did our group workout. This consisted of homemade 'Zumba' and 'Big Fat Pony.' Coach edit: this is a song and dance, led by the athletes, of course. I don't think we are quite so creative. After these calisthenics, we each picked our own stretch to share with the group.
       After everyone took a refreshing nap, the two of us (Nicola and Dannica) went to Govy General to buy chalk to make a "Happy Birthday" sign for Lexi on the basketball court/parking lot. She was surprised with our creation later. At dinner Lexi was served a cake and a Huck shake, and sung to by the Famous Burkie Rowmark chorus. The night was finished with a very competitive game of 9-square, followed by an early bedtime.
       This has been Nicola and Dannica now signing off from Mt. Hood, Oregon. Have a dandy day!
