First Snows of the Winter


At about 5am this morning a huge crack of thunder pierced the pitch dark and silence of a late November Saturday morning...
Getting up a few hours later to make tea and start the day we were welcomed with the sight of the first real snow of winter.
Forecasts suggested a metre of snow higher up and so a little randonnée or raquette may be in order... but with the wind from the north blowing across the lake winter has arrived...
Light the wood stove, crack open a bottle of wine and curl up...
