She's back in the saddle again (Michelle skiing)!

Top of Blackcomb's Glacier Chair (March 15, 2018)
Nearly 3.5 months of rehab after tearing the MCL and ACL of her right knee, Michelle finally made it back up the hill today. A beautiful sunny day with easy conditions for 8 runs. Feeling good and happy at the end.
