It’s Sunday so it must be time for our weekly trip to alpine heaven. A dream destination. Let’s visit beautiful Switzerland.
Switzerland is a place we haven’t been able to visit since 2015. But it is still so special to our little family. One day we will return.
The weather has been awful here in Yorkshire. Day after day of damp, misty greyness. I so need to experience colour again. To breathe in that fresh mountain air. To experience being alive again. So let’s spend a few moments drinking in the colours of Switzerland.
Take care.

Yesterday I read that Switzerland is the only country that is keeping their Alps ski slopes open. Slopes in other countries are asking why they can’t be open too.

I’m in the US and the state I live in has ski slopes. They are open.

I think they will be in Calif too, despite our numbers. The article was specific to the Swiss Alps.

Do you ever visit the slopes.

One slope, yes but, not for skiing. I can’t ski. I’ve had bad knees since I was 12.
This place:

is on Beech Mountain and the road leading up to it is part of the ski trails. So, yeah, I’ve been to that slope…but in the summer.
I need to post about that place…

Aw, wouldn’t it be nice to indulge in a little luxury right now? Tough year for sure and though I try to remember to be thankful for my blessings (of which there are many) there are times it all gets me down. Then I come to WordPress and read posts like yours and other upbeat and pleasant people and I feel better. Still, a little luxury would be nice once in a while. LOL
