Skiing? Only once, but when I wiped out on the "bunny" slope, I
knew skiing was not in the cards for me.
Ice fishing? Just once, at the tail-end of winter, on a lake just
to the west of the Twin Cities, with a few friends. If sitting on a
frozen lake around a hole in the ice and freezing your tush off
while not catching any fish at all is your idea of fun, you
might like ice fishing. I
certainly didn't.
