Across the lake. You could not see the mountains all winter long due to the clouds but they have returned and are as beautiful as ever.


View from the main living space.

Horse Meat Update

Over the weekend we had Liam, Kerry and Dermot visiting. We took the plunge and actually tried horse meat.

It honestly was WAAAAYYYY better than I thought it would taste. I could definitely have again.

The only brave souls to try it were Liam, Tyler, Ben, Dermot and myself.

The ladies were too squeamish.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Tyler (15) and Alex (17). We celebrated their birthdays back to to back at the beginning of March.

This was Tyler's cake.

Skiing in Stoos

We spent February vacation skiing in a small town called Stoos. Stoos is a self contained town at the top of the Alps. You can only get to the town via cable car and it allows only pedestrian traffic or horse drawn carriages.

Like many mountains in Switzerland, if you ski off the end, you perish!!!!
