Just returned from the Alpine moonlight bonfire, marshmallow roast, BBQ,
and full moon ski. Including an Alpenhorn soloist up on the hill and a
bar band in the lodge.

Fortunately for future pleasures the weather was preparing to snow again
tonight, so an overcast came in about 5 after a blue sky ski day.
Even more fortunately a gap in the clouds formed and persisted exactly
where the full moon rose.

A good time was had by all. Finished off with Peppermint Schnapps
infused cocoa by the fireplace.



Well, a good time for you! I hope you also had a flagon of mead.

Well, I'm sure it was Urquel. The weather here has been lovely
too. We didn't even get the overcast. Clear blue since Monday
last, generally 60's and 70's. Snow going fast but Thursday
was still an epic day. I decided to make it my last even though
a couple of areas nearby will stay open and we could always hike
for our turns.

Nobody invited me to a mountain top party, though we rode up the
lift at 4 PM with a guy who had most of a case in his backpack.
Didn't invite us even though we whined all the way up.
