Learning to ski with Mimi
I don’t remember when Mimi first talked about skiing, but I was very young. She had great stories to tell about her adventures studying and traveling in Europe on the GI Bill after her time in the WAC in New Guinea. Chamonix and Zermatt were her favorites but she skied in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France and Italy. On occasion, she would start in one country and ski down in the alps into a different country and have to take the train back across the border. As I discovered later, she became quite an accomplished skier.
