Before Nick and I married, my husband issued me an unwritten pre-nuptial statement which would allow him to ski where and whenever he desired throughout our wedded years. Having met each other in a Chicagoland ski club, where Nick was presiding president, this did not seem to be an unusual request from him at the time. What I didn’t know then, however, was the fact that Nick would become a certified ski instructor, would ski tough Canadian glaciers, and would very successfully teach all of our three children, as well as his wife, to love skiing. What I didn’t know then, either, was that both Nick and I would still be skiing into our senior years.
