Had to buy a couple of cute new ski outfits. I ordered this and another two from Gorsuch catalog early last week and they arrived quickly.
They keep me warm and dry. This one, with the jacket, is silver. I went crazy and bought an all white outfit and an all black outfit.
When I fall into the snow, hubs can’t find me if I’m wearing the all white.
I may have to sell them if we return to Florida next year. I don’t see skiing much more in my future, but for now it’s been a blast! Hope to return to Connecticut on Thursday!

I've never been skiing before, but it looks like fun!
That jacket is so nice!

@DianneN You can always buy them now and wear later. Nothing wrong with that!

@AngelisaQT True, but they would be too hot for South Florida where we usually live from December to June.

My vaccine appointment is at the top of my mind. Are you going to get the vaccine?
Thank you! Ski clothes are so pretty. I had a difficult time deciding what to get. I would still prefer to be in Florida during my winters. I'm getting a bit sick of looking at snow.

@DianneN time for laundry. Something that I hate to do but it is something I cannot leave behind my weekend schedule. I am about to put some loads in the washing machine but decided to go back to bed and MyLot for at least 1 hour.

@jobelbojel Ha ha! I left a load in the dryer. For all I care, it can stay there until tomorrow. Exhausted tonight!

I bet you look good in all of them, too.
I've been skiing once. I took a bad tumble and didn't want to do it again.

@DianneN You're welcome.
Yeah, I was on the beginner's slope. The instructor said I twisted my ankle. I stayed in the sports shelter until my friend showed up for me. I just talked with people for several hours.

@DaddyEvil Sounds like you got hurt early on. Hopefully, you healed up quickly. At least you didn't break your ankle or anything else.

You look great in the photo. Hard to believe your a Grandma! Heh. I didn't learn to ski until I was 22 (in the mountains near Seattle), so it's something I was OK at, but not great at. I'm not sure what my knees would have to say about it now.

Great outfit. How long have you been on vacay now? It seems like a month or more. 25 days until spring!!! Now hubs is starting to vacillate on the Florida trip. I think it's too far for us to drive...maybe he thinks so too.

@LindaOHio Why don't you just fly directly? Once there, it will be blissful!

@DianneN 1,422 one way. We have a lot of stops planned; but that's a lot of driving for my old hubs, even though I will be doing some driving too. His driving makes me very nervous these days!

And have you seen the weather lately?
I don't know about Florida, but recent winter-storms (when it's ALMOST SPRING) have caused a lot of problems in Texas, Oklahoma (and a little bit in Arkansas and in several other states).

It will be good too see you back home again. Glad the outfits keep you warm and dry. You need a flag on your head for when you wear the white one.

@DianneN I like it, I like white for snow, although a fluorescent color is more practical

@DianneN Dianne maybe don't, but it's easier for your husband to find you
