Grand Beau Temps!

Those who know me have heard me say (maybe more than once!) that I prefer a rainy day in the Alps to a sunny day in Paris.  Well, imagine what I think of a sunny day in the Alps!  We got one of those days today: scarcely a cloud in sight; cold in the morning, then warmer as the sun worked its magic.  I returned to the Fer-à-Cheval Valley for a walk through forest and then open slopes still covered with snow.  Vertical mountains surrounded me.  I'll let the pictures below tell the rest of the story.
