We do indeed have Lesotho surrounded! lol another very beautiful place should you ever get to see it.

However, sound like you live in paradise!  I hear what you're saying about the wrong kinds of people moving into the area, that can really put a bummer on things. Don't give up on owning your own house there one day, I believe everything is possible eventually. We've also got horrific housing prices too at the moment but our housing market is about to collapse and housing will become cheaper pretty soon from now. \

Are you really a mountain climber? That is so cool!! I'm more into hiking, we never had anything major to climb nearby but we've got some killer hiking trails around.

		Well if it makes you feel any better, I could always identify South Africa on the map as the country with the "hole" in it (that hole being Lesotho which I think is the only country in the world completely surrounded by another one). Anyway........I live in Central Oregon which is a beautiful place, a combination of pine forests topped by high, snowcapped dormant volcanoes, wild rivers and high desert.  Big mecca for skiers, mountain bikers, hikers and mountain climbers (I'm in that last category).  Unfortunately all this natural beauty has its downside......it's currently America's most over-priced housing market (which is why I will probably never be able to afford my own home here) and all the wrong kinds of people are moving here (and they keep on coming).  But I consider it home, have moved away twice and regretted the move both times, so here I stay.

we're freezing here in africa.. very cold and wet but I'm surviving lol.

Vail are you guys having some sort of heatwave or normal weather for this time of year?
