ski: les contamines

Another beautiful sunny day in the Alps. It's been an incredible season for fresh snow.

Reviewing ski videos over lunch.

soggy sunday

Today brought more winter fog. I'm on my own for the day, so after a long morning cuddled with Pinot and coffee, I decided to face the damp, grey, gloomy Sunday, and head out to the woods on my snowshoes. This was a pretty good idea, except for the drizzle. Not so bad at first, but by the time I finished my walk, I was pretty well soaked, and rain turned the snow to sludge. I saw a few birds- firecrests, nuthatch, a creeper, and followed boar tracks along a stream. It was still nice to be out, although, I heard it was a sunny day in the (invisible) mountains.
