Day:119, Words:119

As kids we sang 'Rain rain go away, come back again another day'. Here it is more like...'Rain rain, it soon is May, help us take the snow away'. It bucketed down all day as fog drifted in over the mountains. The brave ones have changed their tyres to the summer version, despite the various weather guessing institutions predicting snowfalls next week. Inevitably there will be those who have jumped the gun too early and will begrudgingly change their tyres twice more before summer. The annual skiing event at Langfjord was a slushy affair. The event attracts participants and spectators from all over the country and continent as competitors are timed both up and down the challenging mountain.
