- Three separate cartoons depicting different stories about skiing. The first is two men, one in the front that appears to be struggling and one in the back of the line. There are two children and a dog inbetween the adults. The second drawing is a group of adults skiing together, one of them is looking at the viewer and the figure in the front looks like Pete’s Grandmother. Both this drawing and the first drawing depicts the groups cross country skiing. The third drawing is of a stick figure taking off their hat and walking towards something. His foot catches the end of a ski and it lifts up and hits him in the back of the head. He is shown after to be sitting on the ground with the skis asking “WHO DID THAT!!”
