As the kids were out and about on the slopes this morning Josh's instructor found me in the lodge and goes, "You're going to have to come with me"!!!?? Oh... this can't be good... Josh fell while trying to get on the chair lift and clunked his knee - when they told him he'd have to ride back to the first aid station he was so excited that he was jumping up and down - okay, so I guess the knee can't be that bad. Once they brought him down in their SUV - with him goofing around with the radio along the way - he laid down on the cot and told us his head was hit by the chairlift... he had his helmet on and we could only find a small scrape on it but in the mean time Josh was quizzed about where he is and what day it is - he actually remembered so he seemed fine. The instructor's advise was to let him sit with me, Nana and Poppop through lunch to judge how he seemed but to think twice about possible knee injury and putting him back out on snow that was accumulating rapidly. Apparently this storm was supposed to create two- inch snowfall per hour! I haven't seen any statistics but I believe that this was a significant storm just from watching it come down all day.
So, he was really disappointed that I made the call to keep him in for the afternoon but the slopes are supposed to be groomed and nice tomorrow and it looks like the conditions will be great. Late today it was more like ice pellets than snow but it seems like things are getting better and at least we didn't have all ice like Pennsylvania.
