The sun was shining. The skiers were skiing. And the car park was full.

But my husband dropped us at the lodge

and Mum even walked on the snow to take this view.

See—just to prove she really walked on Mount Hood.

A moment of scenic beauty to share with those you love.

Now, as I see it, England had 'Eddie The Eagle' doing the snow jumps. There never was a female counterpart and I'm sure you believe in equality. Get your Mum some skies. Tell her she's going to fly throught the air and love it. Maybe you should demonstrate first.

Your Mum is a good photographer! It looks like you had a good time.
For me experiencing another hot West Oz summer, these breathtaking pics are just the thing, Sheila.

Will you be doing snow jumping at the London Olympics?

Hey ... this is the first nice days in Kansas in months! That snow makes me want to put my coat back on! I need to see those in early November when I'm dying to see snow :):)
