Okay, first let me inject you with some worthless unforgetable knowledge then let you carry on and view the images.
Starting around this time of year, a lot of Canadians get the urge to travel abroad;. Lots of various reasons.
Some travel to the carribean islands, the americas, southern USA including hawaii, europe, asia, australia is popular, seems like almost everywhere but here but it is for the most part because of warmth.
But why would any Canadian want to leave this beautiful country, look here at yesterday, approximately 12:30pm, just after some lunch. I was doing some yard work, trimming the last of outdoor herbs(lemon thyme, silver thyme, common oregano and greek oregano), knowing that I have to winterize the yard soon, mother nature will speak and her words of a typical Canadian winter will be spoken. The sun is shining, its bright and the temperature is about 8C with no wind and very pleasant - I was out in a "T" shirt, just a lovely fall day.
So, move ahead 24 hours and mother nature spoke but her words were rather harsh. That's my youngest daughter, the older daughter is in the house playing on her computer, probably watching Hanna Montana or something similar that 11 year olds watch, maybe watching the latest Jason Beaver video on Youtube singing his latest song(I might have gotten the kid's name wrong but I am sure you'll figure it out). No, its not a holiday, no they are not sick, you see, this morning their school bus never showed up to take them to school. Was it because we live in a remote rural region of Canada only seen by native peoples or some european explorer and the bus couldn't make it through the blazen forest trail - nope, couldn't be, we live in a typical urban Canadian city, actually one of Canada's largest cities(5th largest to be exact, with a population of approximately 1 million plus people). Every home has electricity, clean running water, natural gas, cable/satellite TV, highspeed internet, cellular mobility available to all, flush sewage that is pumped underground to a sewage treatment centre based on the latest technologies known to mankind. The city has a full infrastructure of paved roads with major highways, full city transit with buses running every 15 - 30 minutes, a semi rapid rail transit to shuttle commuters into the downtown core to work in the many highrise office structures. I don't want to leave out our world class healthcare system with several hospitals or our almost free education system up to university, we do have to pay for school busing because my girls live outside the walk zone, if we really wanted to, we could walk 30 minutes and be at the school.
...nope, none of those, here's why:
No, the dog is not an American Husky looking to be attached to its sled team, its a sheltie/eskimo mix looking to play and roll in the snow.
Thanks for reading..........guess summer/fall is officially over.
