Last Friday afternoon I finished work early and drove 5kms from my cabin and then traveld there on skis.
The last half a kilometre was the worst because the skis sank a half metre in the snow.
There was more snow on the cabin roof than I had anticipated.
My first job was to make a fire and then I cleared a path to the toilet.
All the food in the cabin was frozen
So I had to steam a tin of soup to melt a little to be able to get it out of the can and then cooked it with some dumblings I made.
There was a clear sky and full moon so I cleared part of the roof on Friday evening.
On Saturday morning I made fried oat cakes for breakfast.
Then I started clearing snow from the cabin roof which was 220cms deep.
When I had finally removed all the snow, it started snowing again!
Saturdays evening meal was re-hydrated potato hash browns with fried dried sausage.
I left on Sunday morning with the satisfaction of knowing the job was done.
Guess what I had to when I got home…
The temperature had risen to 6 degrees and the snow was melting.
