Morning "Rise & Shine" 1 hour lesson with a St. Louis lady. Two laps on Big Easy, then two laps on Arrow. Followed up with a 3 hour lesson with a 4 y/o from Monday. Got the little dude turning, but he petered out due to lack of sleep the night before. He'll be back, though and we'll get him turning like a champ then. Was on call and then let go around 2 and then went and skied a run on "Washoe" with fellow instructor Heather. Then hit "Boondocks" before connecting with Turx and Cindy for a lap in the trees near "The Face". Ran into Trish and Haines on "Lower Pioneer" and did some off-the-cuff coaching. Rode up Vista and skied part of "Skid Trail" with the ladies before heading over to Comstock and running into fellow instructor Gordon-from-Down-Under and his lady friends Natalie and Camilla. Banged out a "The Chute" run and then "Grouse Alley" before calling it a day.
