Skiing and suck

I went to Lutsen MN for spring break with my buddy tim, who lives near Duluth in Hermantown, MN. We had two decent, if not cold, windy, and wet (just to name a few adjectives) in the 1100 vertical feet that is Lutsen. Snow was decent, but very crusty at times.

However, on the way back, at 7:30 P.M. I was driving on highway 53, when a beige Chevy Cavalier passed me in the left lane, suddenly hitting its brakes. I followed suit, at which point I lost control of my Subaru Outback and swerving left into the ditch between the north and south bound lanes. I barrel rolled my car a total of four times, cracking the wind shield, tearing off the side view mirrors, denting the body and roof. I sustained only some small lacerations to my left pinky finger. I ended up staying the night in Barron, WI (pop approx. 2,000). My mom picked me up today, and I rode the four hours back to Madison. Not a good way to start a Spring Break.
