Beauty day today: bluebird sky, temperatures warming gorgeously – and, a spirit of adventure.

We went up Butter , ascended the right-hand knoll and then, freelanced (bushwhacked) over to the first knoll. My bad for not realizing I had my track reversed – so we missed the second knoll by inches. In fact, lunch was just below it.

But no matter. We now have a track and a pretty cool winter snowshoe route. And it was fun. I think everyone had a good time.

There’s nothing like getting out there. And then coming home to a hot bath and chocolate!

Simon had a political day protesting Kinder Morgan in Nelson – yay!

Thank god one of us is useful to society!
