Last weekend we explored the ridge-line below the summit of Mt Aragats, the tallest peak in Armenia, not to be confused with Mt Ararat, the alleged site of Noah's ark's remains, which is in Turkey. Although it was 103 degrees back in the city of Yerevan, it was cold enough on the mountain that we needed jackets and long pants. As we drove up the broken and pot hole ridden "road" at 2 miles an hour we spotted snow still dotting the mountainside. You can imagine the kids excitement and my equally demoralized reaction. But alas, their pleading won out and we stopped to play in the cold, wet, depressing , wintery substance. They had a blast, and their infectious happy mood eventually spread to me. After the "fun" in the snow, we walked over to a little pond where Van and Jared skipped rocks, while Ava and I played in the car, with the heat on.
