Winter Part II with Lindsay

   So, just when you thought it was safe to plant flowers outside,, Ol' Man Winter returns for a little jaunt about the Lake.  Seems the forecasts call for: "Ta-daaaa-S-N-O-W!  Perhaps as much as a few feet, depending on elevation.  We'll welcome this with open arms; better late than never.  It could sooth the pain of the prior few months, but I doubt it.

Lindsay Vonn- Skier Extraordinaire
     Unless you've been living under a rock or stopped skiing 10 years ago, you can't overlook the accomplishments of American skier, Lindsay Vonn.  This season has placed her in the pantheon of great American skiers.  What she has done -in one season- most athletes won't accomplish in a lifetime.  This young woman, Olympic gold medalist, has won her 4th World Cup title!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with 5 races left on the circuit.  On Friday, March 9, she beat the Mayor's cousin, Federica Brignone of Italia by 0.50 seconds(a lot!).  Let's hear it for Lindsay.  Red Bull, the pervasive bull...., is one of her sponsors.  Oh, well, it's OK.
   Hopefully, Lindsay will ski at Homewood sometime soon and give the Mayor a few tips on his downhill/slalom skills(yeh,sure).
