Long weekend

The long weekend has just come and gone. The opening of the ski season in Australia. There is rarely any snow so early in the season but the media seems to be making a big deal of that this year.
Usually everyone apres skis on that first weekend. Catching up with mates and enjoying the beautiful mountains with a sense of anticipation.
Falls Creek hosts a mass swim in the Rocky Valley Dam which is not for the faint hearted. There might be something in it though.
My Brother in Law was Norwegian and his Grandmother, who lived well in to her 90's swam in the North Sea every day!
Tom used to love to ski all day, then have a sauna and roll in the snow. A habit that was not widely adopted by his Australian relatives!
We managed to finish painting outside before the weather changed, so blame us for the Indian Summer.
