I've already written how Mellowdene village avoids the worst weather - however, the deeper one travels into the county, the less protection there is against the elements. What would Mellowdenians do about that? That was the inspiration for the story.
Being numerous outdoor locations I've had to do some photo-editing. The story gave me a chance to use a couple of my Bluey vehicles - which was fun.
Oh, one last point - one of the reasons I started my blog was so that I could contribute to the forum. I'm delighted to see that the number of views has just passed 100,000. Thank you to all of you who contributed to that count!
Primrose Evergreen's Winter Forecast
Hello! It's Darcy again. Back at work and quite happy how business has been handled during my extended Christmas break. I hadn't decided what to write for you but inspiration came after a visit from Primrose Evergreen
Primrose Evergreen is Mellowdene's weather forecaster. I understand she's always had an affinity for meteorological predictions but that has been honed over her life so that her accuracy is uncanny. She regularly travels to Upper Mellowdene to observe Coldmount Peak and records movements of ice particles whirling about the pinnacle. She says this helps her long-range forecasts. I've no reason to dispute that.
Skylark: I enjoyed reading about winter in Mellowdene! I live in a pretty snowy place so I can relate to the preparation and foresight needed to keep life going through the snowy season. I also liked hearing about the mysterious meterology of Chunglewood!
