I go up to Scotland tomorrow to rendezvous with the Stardust recce crew, where more snow probably lies in wait. (I'm not going to point out to them that the Quiraing and such places are probably going to look a bit different five weeks from now.)
Brilliant day. Any day you get to walk the deck of a ship that fishes for lightning in the clouds with your family has to be a brilliant day.
