Snow melting in the morning sun

I was lucky enough to capture this shot of the melting snow, slowly falling off the roof of the main lodge at Ski Tuonela.

Now the people will know we had snow...

The grass might be showing 'down south', but there is still plenty of the white stuff just outside of Baddeck!

This week, I'll be posting pictures from my recent trip to Ski Tuonela. If you love XC, backcountry, telemark skiing and cabin lodging, you MUST check this place out!

The resort is incredible, you will not be dissapointed.

Thanks Chris and Ann, I will be back next season!

Take a walk down the path...

It leads to some big, honkin' waves...

Waves, and then some

First glimpse of the beach and the big, honkin waves that were rolling in on Monday.

More to follow...

Ehem....what happened to my winter!?!

I know, I know, I'm the one of the few who wants it to look like this outside:



I can't help it, I love winter, and I feel like it's been cut short on me!

Sorry for the belated blog post today, and for missing yesterday's post altogether. Fifty lashes with a wet noodle for this blogger!

Stay tuned this week, for pictures of big waves after the recent storm.

Look into the distance

You can see the lone pair of tracks that made it down Vinegar Hill after last week's dump of snow. You can see some of my snowshoe tracks in the foreground.
