S-N-O-W... Just the mere mention of that word sends shivers over my entire body. Debbie, these photos are especially for you to enjoy. You accused me of bringing the cold Canada weather back home with me so thought I would share with you what it was really like.
This is downtown Morden, Manitoba, Canada. It is a small town, population around 7,000 I believe. Snow was scrapped from the main roads most of the time but some icy patches remained. Check out the snow banks along the sides of the street.
Jamie took this picture in Joey's back yard. The snow had drifted up on the trees and it did look pretty but I tried to stay inside as much as I could because it was bitter cold outside.

That's me standing in front of some Blue Spruce trees that were beautiful with the snow on them but I was so cold my teeth were chattering. Joey had just given Jamie and I the grand tour of the museum where he and Anita both work and we were walking back home afterward. They live a couple of blocks from the museum so they walk to work each day.
Jamie out in the back yard enjoying the snow... well I doubt she was really enjoying it, I think it was more like she was freezing her butt off.
Joey catching a snow ball that Jamie had just hurled toward him. This was at a nearby park in Morden where we went for a little walk in the snow.Now go sit in front of a toasty fireplace and sip a cup of hot chocolate and think warm thoughts and be glad you live in a place where it never gets this cold.
