…my good friend Dee was house sitting for friends in the hills overlooking the Otago Peninsula…

…the weather took a turn for the f**king terrible…
….and we got snowed in Sunday Night…
…then frozen over on Monday night…
…finally freed ourselves on Tuesday afternoon…

…many thanks to Kirsten, Scott & Alice for the comfy bed , food, rural animal-feeding distractions and towage past the insurmountable drive-way hump…
