DG: So skiing was one of your hobbies.

NS: Yes, uh-huh.

DG: Did you have...

NS: When Crystal Mountain -- well, my third son, Howard, went into ski racing so he went to different areas to -- well, I took him to different areas to take part in the races. Of course, when I had to go, why, I had to arrange for the rest of them to go and arranged ski buses and accommodations for the ski team to go to different areas. And I enjoyed that very much; went all over the Northwest.

DG: How long did you ski yourself?

NS: I skied until I was seventy. Decided that that was a good time to stop. [Laughs] At least my children thought so too.

DG: Did you have any other hobbies, not that you could fit it in?

NS: No. We had a condominium at Crystal Mountain when they opened, when my youngest two were ski racing for them. So I was up there every weekend after just about Christmas time until spring vacation until they closed. As a family we went skiing there quite often.
