Weather quiet at Killington

I did not have a chance this morning to go out and take any pictures of the area. As some of you may already know, on Sunday I took a tumble which resulted in a nicely sprained ankle. I am currently hobbling around on crutches. Today was supposed to be a ski day, but so it goes.

Anyways, to make lemonade out of lemons, when the accident happened, I went to the Killington Medical Center at the base of Rams Head. I can tell you that the medical center is a beautiful, well equipped facility with a very friendly and compassionate staff. Fortunately, for me, they were not too busy on Sunday. It took me about 1 hour to have X-rays, a doctor consultation, have my ankle wrapped, and, of course, pay the bill. I have what the doctor called a "High Ankle Sprain". Hopefully, I will be back on the hill in 10 days or so... Thanks to my friends, Howie and Connie, for getting me to the Medical Center. Mary, fortunately for her, was on her way for one last visit with her parents in Boston before the holidays, so Howie and Connie graciously put up with my grumpiness and got me to the doctor.

Enough about me... There was no real snowfall that fell overnight at Killington. The big storm that had been talked about on the weather channel appears to have gone out to sea south of us. Temperatures this morning are in the 20's with an occasional snow flake drifting down. I am sure that the mountain is making snow as I hear the sound of the snow guns in the distance, echoing down the valley.
