The Provincial border sign is up. I find myself wondering if they actually scrape all of the stickers off each year or just put up a fresh sign?
I suspect the latter - a lot less work.

Had to register here just so I could post about Stelvio. Our Stelvio visit is scheduled for the 11th of June, hope everything is up and running by then. Can't wait.

Karza: Nice to see a fellow countryman :)

Plenty of activity today and the Orange Wurst man's setting up. I was hoping to get by that way in the next week but a change in direction regarding my job put the kybosh on that.

Two wurst stands, motorccles, open shops, and it looks like the east ramp is open.

Must be Spring.

Even if the main page says that it's still closed.

Ahhhhh....yes.....THERE is my favorite Orange guy! :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm glad they extracted him from that hideous snowdrift of last month! Good thing for that limoncello/anti-freeze, eh? :roll:

In at least one locale, all is good with the world, once again..... :wink:
