On top of the world

We were skiing in Alpe D'Huez a week or so back. Accompanying Clan Deshoon were the O'Dowd-Hills, Mr. Jessop and Miss Byrne. Alas poor Triona, being heavily with child could not partake in the slipping,sliding and general mayhem. The slopes were excellent, the snow exquisite and we had fun, fun, fun 'till Daddy took the T- Bird away. No broken bones this year either. In point of fact, even Mammy Deshoon enjoyed it this year!Pictured are myself, Jonathan and Tim before embarking on a real Hail Mary red run with the photographer, Master Eoin. What a rush. To follow are a few posts with shots of the expedition.
