ROBINS????? SPRING??????

As I look out my window - the SNOW is plastered to it like a wreath - but
looking out the middle all I can see is swirling snow and all we can hear is
howling wind. I did see a valiant sparrow clinging frantically to the bird
feeder trying to get a few seeds before he was blown past! Ah the joys of
living in the Great North!

- Really not complaining folks, we managed the long day on the road
yesterday to Toronto & the Princess Margaret hospital (Oncology) and getting
home late that night, managed to get the car right up beside the door beflre
the snow drifts stopped us & we are now "snug-as-a-bug with nowhere we have
to go so we will just watch this late winter storm BLOW itself out!

Hope this picture of Canadian living in March helps you all appreciate
wherever you are in the climatic scheme of things :)

love,

JanB
