Today I climbed on my bike from Vallorcine up to the Chapel of Emosson at the Emosson Dam (about 1140 meters of climbing) , a tiny, sweet chapel dedicated to “Our Lady of Snow” (Notre-Dame-des-Neiges) It seemed only fitting that there was a fresh dusting of snow on the pink flowers that were in front of the chapel.

The beautiful stained glass windows inside the chapel shined brightly. It was a day to celebrate, life, the love of the mountains and the change of seasons.
