Saturday 14th February... Happy Valentine's Day to those that acknowledge or celebrate it, 5.23, -2.6dg out the window. The early morning sky looks a little mixed, daylight will tell. Forecasting for the mountain a dusting of new snow. Freeze-thaw conditions (max 3°C on Mon afternoon, min -5°C on Fri night). We have been blessed with a stunning weather week but as the forecast changes so frequently it is hard to say if we will get snow over the weekend now. Yesterday was another one out of the box... when I was on the Feld after lunch my Instaweather said it was +2 dg, my weather station at the house said +8.6dg, I am inclined to believe the weather station, as in a sleeveless vest I was way too hot on the tracks. I cheated a little yesterday as I shifted from skate to classic and back again as I went around to give myself a little breather... and I thought I was relatively fit. My incoming family from Holland arrived in wonderful time around 16.30 so my evening was free from having to wait .... choices, it was Friday night and when a girl gets a little glint in her eye it is not a good sign. I walked into town, did a couple of minor things and then sat with a few for a few... was home in timely fashion to watch the first run Men's GS from Vail, so it just goes to prove my off button does still work sometimes. Today is a day to walk to the recycler, attend to a handful of things here, chill down a bottle of crisp bubbles, a tour of the Feld and then home to cook a super lunch. Yesterday I was given a super Valentines posy by my Friday girls... tradition here I was told, I said that it is normally something that is done in secret, anonymously, by a secret admirer... however it is done, and for what ever reason, it was a wonderful surprise. Today I celebrate Valentine's Day with myself... it would be silly not to... and any excuse is a good excuse. heart emoticon
