My favorite winter sport is sewing. Sorry, I’m not a sporty kind of gal. I do faithfully swim year round to get some oxygen going through my system. But to be truthful, it’s not my favorite thing to do. Maybe I’ll sew some sports clothes for the dolls. :D

My favorite winter sport is ice skating. It was a family event with Daddy teaching his girls and
outnumbered son how to. Daddy was very good at it. Always tested the ice before we were allowed on it. Thinking back – don’t know what we would have done if he’d fallen in! Always our hero!

My favorite winter sport is swimming. I loved it as a child, growing up in a farming community in the Sacramento Valley it was our main source of activity/entertainment during the summer months. As an adult, I’ve found that doing water aerobics is excellent exercise for seniors that you can do year round, so YES it is a winter sport. I also love swimming in the ocean and snorkeling when we vacation in Hawaii with our family. I don’t like cold weather so I’ve never wanted to ski or ice skate, but do I enjoy watching it on TV and we always watch the Olympics.

My favourite winter sport is cross-country skiing. I started cross-country skiing with my family when I was very young. I don’t get to do it often anymore as I now live in area area that normally does not get a lot of snow that sticks around. It is usually raining all winter instead. I have to travel at least one hour away to get to do any type of skiing. Perhaps my new year’s goal should be to get out cross-country skiing more.

“Mon sport d’hiver préféré est, mais je dois parler au passé car je ne pratique plus, donc mon sport d’hiver préféré lorsque j’étais enfant est : le ski de descente, je me rappelle les jolis moments quand notre Papa nous apprenait à skier et les moqueries de mes grands frères. Ah ! quand on est une petite filles les grands frères nous embêtent, mais mes grands frères me défendaient toujours si des enfants m’attaqué. Ces genres de souvenirs font remonter l’amour entre frères et sœur. BONNE ET HEUREUSE ANNEE 2022 AVEC UNE BONNE SANTE A TOUS, PRENEZ BIEN SOIN DE VOUS.”

My favourite winter sport used to be sledding but it’s been years since I’ve done it.
I do love winter nights for how the snow buffers the sounds and makes it so quiet and peaceful outside. I love the early dark and late sunrise. It seems to make the world feel peaceful. But I was never much into sports unless you would consider knitting to be one!😂

I was raised right on Lake Michigan in the Upper Peninsula. As teens we used to wait for a February thaw of the top of the ice/snow, and a refreeze. Then we would skate across the bay from Rapid River to Escanaba (20 miles by road/too young to drive, but only 2-3 miles across the bay.) I LOVED the exercise of skating! (wasn’t any good at jumps or figures, but loved the exercise/peace/quiet.

My favorite winter sport is “Spring Cleaning”. It’s exercise and warms rather than chills. When Spring actually arrives, I’ll want to go outside, not tidy up winter’s clutter. All the chores that are too hot to do in summer, get ‘em done now! Attire includes smocks and aprons and cargo pants and vests with many pockets to keep tools warm-to-the-touch. I’ll relax with pre-warmed knitting needles or crochet hooks, no icy utensils.
