As often as I could, I would go out cross-country skiing when I got home from school. We were out in the country, so I could just strap on my skiis at the back door and be gone until dinnertime. One time, I was skiing along the line of the fence, a little bit of snow falling and not a sound except for the soft swish of my skis. I startled a rabbit and it ran off, leaving a wake of flying snow. The sun was low in the sky, so that rose-coloured light reflected from the bottom of the clouds and the top of the snow.
