It's a really windy day today. My least favourite kind of weather. I didn't want to go outside at all. My reward was getting to admire the tenancity of this tree, still keeping it's leaves, holding on for dear life.

Strong survival instincts displayed
Indeed. When I was outside it was hard to walk the wind was so strong. I can't imagine how those leaves are clinging on.
On the bright sight, the skiing season is about to start :) It already snowed a bit yesterda.
There's no season on the UK South Coast. I can't remember when the last time was we had enough snow to make a snowman let alone ski.
I noted many Brits skiing in Austria, there are affordable flights to Salzburg ;)
Alas. My skiing days are over I think. My knees can't take the pounding anymore. I always had mixed feelings about it anyway. Hate all those layers of clothes and if it's busy. But loved those moments of sheer beauty and peace when finding myself on a quiet slope.
Too much windy is really annoying.
