We finally had our first snowfall and I decided to try to learn to cross country ski.   My goal was to ski 20 feet to the shelter for some hot chocolate, but every time I managed to ski 5 feet, the wind caught me and pushed me back 2 feet.   How many times did the wind catch me before I finally got to the shelter?    Show your work.
