Gezgin So it's river laundry washing then, this week? Just read the weather for down there, sounds like if the wind doesn't get you the snow will. Take care.
Gezgin You are sure right there... strong ends snd rain today... snow arrives in 2-3hours down to 200mtrs we are at 320mtrs above sea level!!... snow on the roads. The Milfird Sound buses have been returning already. They normally come through around 6.30pm. We have the heater on already and everything is closed up and car secured.

We had a great dump of snow last night and as I write this more is falling. With the sun on the mountains and trees they become totally awesome.
Gezgin Magnificent. Gods beautiful creation, looks so peaceful. I say this from the warmth of Tauranga. Are you warm in your home.
Gezgin We are toasties warm.. we have only the electric heating going.. the gas is hotter and diesel heating is tops but not needed.
Gezgin Poor lambs down there. They will just be new borns. They dont lamb down there until October.
Gezgin The lambs next to us were born a month back.. quite large now... being spring the snow melts quickly therefore there is plenty of food, and large trees about for protection.

Gezgin Good work you both are doing. Lovely views of the lake. Catch up with you at Christmas.
Gezgin Your 2nd photo looks like you've got a machine gun in your hand. I assume it's a saw of some sort. Or do you shoot the branches off down there.
Gezgin No it's a battery power kanga saw. We have just received advice of severe snow fall tonight down to 100mtrs. Time to book a trip to Fiji!!
Gezgin Yeah reckon. You might have to keep your heating going over night. Good photos tomorrow.
