We have been having snow in the mountains here which everyone says is very strange for this time of year - almost summer and after a winter with very little snow!!. However, we have been enjoying it and have been toboganning in a snow storm, building snow men and having lots of snow fights. Walking in the mountains, we are always at risk of a cold ball of snow hitting us in the face or the neck and sliding down inside all clothing - you look around and there is Ashur grinning happily.
The snow has added a few challenges to the walking but it has made the mountains absolutely spectacular - the fresh snow is beautiful and we have been walking in the forest with snow falling softly and all the trees carrying snow on their leaves. On some mornings we look at the mountains and they have a fresh dusting of snow - just magnificent !! On the sides of the mountains it is a bit tricky as the snow is slippery and it is impossible to tell how deep it is - we are working it out and it adds another dimension of excitement.

Well Ian, that's interesting about the late snow. Here in Queensland we're having a late winter -- still quite warm although it is the first week of June. Hardy any frosts yet. There is a constant trickle of people asking for the address of your blog -- so your'e slowly gathering an audience. Regards, Paul.
