We had hoped
to not need anything for ski season other than passes. And maybe snow pants for The Girl. Right.
We ended up at the fall ski sale with two pairs of boots (one ski and
one snowboard), the necessary snow pants, suspenders with peace signs
(purchased from Amazon), two new pairs of ski socks, and a pair of goggles to
replace the ones damaged in the rail riding incident of last winter. But, we did not purchase the Star Wars themed
board. Just saying. My favorite part of the shopping extravaganza
was when the young clerk said, “hi, how can I help you?” The Boy responded with “I need new boarding
boots” Clerk: “Snowboarding boots?” Boy:
(with quizzical look) “Um, yeah?”
Clerk: “Have you ever snowboarded before?” Boy “yeah”
Clerk “once or twice?” Boy “once
or twice a weekend since I was 5….”
Clerk “Ah, then I guess you know what you need then” Boy “Yeah”.
