Is it still fall? It kinda feels like it, it kinda feels like we need more Christmas music and to have some snow!
We walked into the shadow of the mountain last weekend and found FROST! It was three in the afternoon and it was cold enough that the frost has survived in the shadow of the mountain. I thought it was very pretty and made me excited for snow to come for real! (Which began today with flurries that haven't really stuck as of yet, but hopefully will last if it keeps snowing!)
On our way up the mountain, they have a switchback path cut into the hillside (really this mountain is a big hill). They have a rain drainage system built in. Shay is showing how he could climb inside it and hold on with no hands.
This was Shay's find at the top of the mountain. A "pillbox" or bunker sort of thing where a guy could sit and watch and shoot down the enemy through a little hole in the cement looking out down the mountain. I think it was really cool because we are in Europe. The world wars were fought here. People actually were in this cement box. And it is just on the side of this hill, left as a reminder of the horrific things that have happened here.
And with the earlier time the sun is going down we got this nice lit up view of the city below us.
Hopefully my next pictures will be of us with snow!
