The 7th Annual Homer Ski for Women, February 7, 2010.
To commemorate the blue moon (and
lunar eclipse) of December 31, 2009, and in keeping with our ongoing Alaska wildlife theme, Carol and Gail came up with
the Looney Blue Moons. Nina thought of placing the moons so as to be "mooning" our admirers. Carol thought that
a cow jumping over the moon would help illustrate the concept. Although for some strange reason we did not win the costume
contest this year, nor make the newspaper (there were no reporters present) these costumes were a breeze to make, the skiing
was divine, and a good time was had by all.
All photos by Gail Heineman except those with attribution in the caption (Kevin Walker, Lynn Temple).
