Andre on a 'dangerous' slope!

This was Andre's second ski trip for the winter....and the conditions this day were terrible.  The wind was blowing like crazy....it was snowing like crazy...and the resort was making snow like crazy!  It felt like we were being pelted by ice...and the visibility was as bad as I have ever seen. 

But....we kept skiing....all day.

Andre did great!!  Really great!!  This photo was toward the end of the day when we had to go down the slope with the "danger" sign to get back to the lodge.  Not sure why Andre is smiling while pointing to this sign.  Maybe it is because he did so well.....flying...really flying past me on a couple slopes.  Well....there is a fine line between 'out of control' and just having fun.  I think Andre was close to the edge!

Anyway....did I mention how well Andre did?  In fact, he only fell once.  It was on the last run of the day....just as we were nearing the lodge.  Of course I had just remarked that he hadn't taken one fall.  We both agreed that an angel must have tripped him to keep him from becoming proud.
