Ok so its July and hot. Infact damn hot on the south coast.
The family and I arent off for a summer holiday as we have two weeks in Les Arc 1800 booked over Xmas/New year. I just cant wait for the snow trip to come!
Is anyone else spendng to much time thinking about this years trip hoping the months will dwindle away?

Yes. I did a little jig at the summer soltice and started the countdown to winter. Shipped my skis off to Spyderjon last week for some tender loving care. I'd say it is time to get excited

Lads ski trip booked. Looking into family ski trip. Can't wait for dark evenings. At the end of July I've reached the half way point between family trips and start watching videos, checking my kit and more time on forums.

Two good signs already today. Our Hornbeam tree has started dropping leaves (proably through thirst more than autumn but hey) and I have had an email advertising Christmas cards from Unicef

Yep definetly starting to think about it a lot during the day but not booking anything as still doing my ACL rehab and getting sooo tantalisingly close to fitness but don't want to put the cankers on it! Two trips before Christmas to test the knee out is definetly the way forward, we shall see!

Another week here, 5 weeks back in the mountains (home), 7 weeks back here, then when I get back home it should have started snowing! Then all ski school stuff in November and hoping for an early season. Oh, and finish wedding planning - hoping for a bluebird day!

I think I would watch video all year but I try to forget about the snow for a few months otherwise the year is too long. But as the kids are on summer holidays, its September next, that's the start of Autumn, virtually winter, plan and prep for the Christmas stuff, December goes quick as a flash and then we're almost there!!

My skis arrived today (thanks Spyderjon, great job!) and I'm loathe to put them away. It just seems wrong.
