Snow

Posted by Deano On Friday, October 02, 2009

27 years old and yesterday was the first time I've ever seen snow!


Andy took his mum and I up to Grouse Mountain, just north of Vancouver. It was a fantastic spot, with a fun climb up the mountain in a Cable Car and then to get to the peak we had to take one of the ski field chairlifts (which I must admit got me a bit tense, that height and such a little bar holding me in). But once up the top we were able to experience Grouse's first snow for the season which had fallen the night before. It was icy and melting, but hey IT WAS SNOW.

The rest of the day was fun too - with Grouse Mountain putting on a Lumberjack Show and seeing some amazing views of Vancouver before heading back down and revisiting Stanley Park (and dodging the attacking Raccoons!)

Hmmm and photos don't seem to be uploading, but there are heap on Facebook if you're over that way!

    I first 'saw' snow when I was 29. It was on top of some mountains a long way away when I was visiting Canada.

    I first got up close and personal with snow when I was 40. That was on Mount Wellington in Tasmania after I'd cycled from Perth, Western Australia, to Hobart.

Who Am I?

I'm a Bible College student... currently looking at either becoming a Pastor at the end of my studies or heading off and serving God overseas as a missionary. 

In 2004 I travelled to The Gambia and worked for a missionary organisation called WEC. I lived in a tiny village called Jarrol - it has become a symbol of the place where I met God on such a real level, it is a place I was able to serve him and learn more about myself than any other time.

This little part of the Internet is now my "Jarrol Spot" - a place where I can explore who I am in Jesus Christ, my passion for cars and motorsport, and all the other aspects of my life.

Jesus has done more for me than I could ever put down on this blog. So now I try to do the very best I can to live a life worthy of him, with an eternal perspective.
