Against The Storm

Do you remember the performance from yesterday? The Sno and all that drama? Well guess what? Today The Boss dropped The Bossess at the airport at Christchurch and drove home. Errr, this is after he returned the "borrow" car from the nice service folk who were servicing Suzz for free (for the next 5 years) and then he drove home to Wanaka, quite a long way, and not a fast trip, but I was very cosy thank you as The Boss pops his camera pak in the passenger side and holds it there with the seat belt so I got a Dress Circle view the whole way. It was raining when we left, it kept raining till we got to Fairlie, where it was Fairlie wet..heh heh heh...Sorry couldn't resist that, and then it started to sno and it kept snowing until past Tekapo and in spite of the huge flashing lights that warned you about stuff like chains and other assorted mayhem, just outside of Fairlie, it was Fairlie good the whole way. OK That has been done to death now. The photography however was better than fair and The Boss was spoiled for choice but his good friend L said the international folk would like this shot of the Church of The Good Shepard at Tekapo surrounded by swirling snow so thank you L and here it is. For newbies this church is iconic and is located at Lake Tekapo on the inland scenic route. If you tell me you are coming and send enough mini treats I will have a word to the weatherman for you.
The Boss had put his boots on before leaving town and this proved to be a grrreat decision as there were a number of excursions that needed them. Especially chasing all the kids away that were having a gigantic snow ball fight and were well in frame. OK just kidding he didn't do that...he just sat in Suzz and ground his teeth until their parents sent them back into their campervan and left.

It's been a long day today so first off a hundred mini barks for all the stars and favours that drove yesterday's snowy shot into the spotlight and a note that I will catch up on you all a bit later in the week as The Boss has SeniorNet preparation tomorrow (about photo's too) and the actual presentation on Thursday, so attention to Blip may be Fairlie sparse (opps) while he gets his Ankle into gear. (Well we are NOT having the rude version on my show) tt.
OH and big T gets rescued from THC tomorrow too and will no doubt have something to bark about too.

Last day of reporting from tt

Snowflakes are falling on my head (apologies to The Sundance Kid)
