First snow

Cold and rainy, with the very first snow of the year hanging around on the peaks nearest the lake. A blustery wind is shaking the last of the chestnuts out of the trees, sending them thudding onto the roof of the chicken coop, and annoying the hell out of the chickens who've to a man gone indoors to sulk until the moulting season is over. Time to dust off the AL-KO 5200 and get ahead with splitting the 12 kilos a day it takes to keep Mathilda happy...

Snow! How romantic - as long as it stays on those mountain peaks!
