Snowy Morning

Happy Tuesday, everyone, and greetings from Northstar, where we own a place for some occasional relaxation.

It’s a good morning so far, with yesterday’s Slope Plus idea bearing fruit already, and my shorts in general behaving themselves properly (e.g. moving lower, and nothing getting stopped out).
