I've done skiing. Go up, shoosh down. Go up, shoosh down. Go up, shoosh down. It doesn't take too long before I'm off to the lodge to go drinking. And I love alpine views as much as anyone.

(When I was a kid, I'd ski until utter exhaustion and could barely walk. But things don't work like that for the adult me.)

If skiing is not your thing, find something else. Almost anything you could possibly do is better than watching TV.
