Let the fights begin!
Ready for action!
The beginning of something big...
hmmm...this is harder than it looks!
Looks a bit like Bart Simpson!
The finished product - Jarryd Roughead???
Not a happy snow bunny!
Lauren does not like having her photo taken!
Run Lol - RUN!!!
The view from Poatina looking across to Ben Lomond
We've been meaning to get to the snow all Winter, and finally got there today. We went up past Poatina to the Great Lakes, stopping when we saw enough snow to play in, away from all the other people with the same idea!
It was a beautiful, sunny, warm day, with enough snow on the ground to have a good play, a snow fight or two, and to build a snowman. On the way back down, we saw it snowing across the lakes.
I remember going to Poatina as a kid, playing in the snow and going into the power station back when you could have tours of it. I even have a photo of me as a baby in our old VW Beetle in the snow - back before the whole snow experience was ruined for me by a fiercely competitive snowballer pelting me in the eye with a rock-solid snow ball - you know who you are - Mark!
Poor Lol wasn't keen on the snow down her back, and I have some great video for their 21sts, with lots of screaming and crying! Not unlike me after the game today! I named the snowman Jarryd Roughead as they both spent a lot of time standing still, on their own, in the cold today!!! I'm just glad we made the most of the snow, and didn't rush home to watch the game!!!

Oh yay!! You went and found some snow! Looks like heaps of fun. How long did it take to get there?
It only took about 40 mins. We went through Longford and Cressy. We stopped at Poatina on the way back - there's a shop, toilets and a playground which is handy! Thanks for the inspiration to finally go!
