Wow. I'd never heard of 'skijoring' until today!
Not to sound vain, but I've an extensive vocabulary and am amused when I find new words I've never encountered.
Thanks for the vocab word, Al!

I live 18 years in interior Alaska...we didn't have "snow" days, we had "to damn cold to get the car started days." However, I now live in Vermont, where we can have snow days. I've found the same cure for both....a fire in the wood stove (or fireplace), a laptop or my journal, and copious amounts of either Irish coffee or good beer...unless, of course, I took the dogs out for some skijoring. In that case, you saved it for when you got back to take the pain away from all the newly sore muscles.
