JACKSON DAY 2

More snow today, the skiing conditions are superb all it lacked was sun and that turned up this afternoon to put the final touches on a great days skiing, the mountain endeared itself to a bit more to me today I was'nt sure about it yesterday, but with the sun this afternoon I have been won over. It is a skiers mountain you cant take anything for granted, once its realised that you have to think about every move the mountain then opens up to you.
I have added some photos of Jackson just to show what a diverse place this is how so many buildings so wildly different stand cheek by jowel and are not unpleasing to the eye which makes you question the term not inkeeping, in fact if you look at many of the fishing villages in Cornwall they are not disimilar
Something I had never noticed before out here was that if you are on foot and are waiting to cross the road vehicles stop and wave you across no matter if your on a crossing or not, all very civilised.
Did'nt make the Wort tonight they finally sussed that Angus was there after 6pm so all very sad but it was a no go.
We are having a day off skiing tomorrow and going up to Yellowstone Park (no thats not where Yogi lives) weather permiting, if not there the Elk refuge.

Hi you two, what a holiday you are having, worry sometimes about you but that is what grandmothers are all about. We had a little snow here yesterday, but to you it would be laughable. The pictures are out of this world Peter
