    I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

Chamonix is located further up and way more expensive. Alpes D'huez is further down. Summer it's famous for tour de france. Winter for ski-ing. Sarenne black piste is 16km long, longest of europe (world I now read on wikipidia).
