After a mild start to March we had another dumping of snow which was exciting for the skiers and also for Heather. She enjoyed playing at the parks and making snow angels. We also went for a hike to Troll Falls and Heather was convinced that she was going on a Troll hunt. There had been a snow shoer ahead of us who was leaving large foot prints on the trail and this added to Heather's excitement.

She came out with the story that she was going to give him a birthday present. She was also very disappointed when we arrived and there was no troll to be found. The waterfall had frozen and had water running behind the ice, so we explained that the troll was sleeping during the winter behind the ice and that we could come back in spring to visit him then. She then decided to leave her stick as a birthday present for when he wakes up!!!!
The things you have to say to make life better
We will just have to see if she remembers the story when spring comes and we try the hike again
Unfortunately the batteries ran out just as I caught her seeing the frozen waterfall.
