Macro Monday – Peaking Through the Snow

…after yesterday’s freak snowstorm

A snowstorm in early November in Toronto is highly unlikely. Yesterday we had snow that lasted all day. The temperature hovered just above freezing and the roads were still warm so the snow melted when it hit the pavement. As the day went on, however, the snow started to stick and it became necessary to clean off the car.

It’s always unusual to see snow when most of the trees still have leaves and now on top of the snow we’re seeing these same leaves starting to fall on this fresh blanket of snow.

Last Day at the Cottage

after 6 wonderful days with Andrea and Olive

This is the first time in many years that I’ve experienced this much snow. Our cottage on Christian Island ( a mere 10 minutes from here to the ferry dock) is not winterized and the road up the north shore is not ploughed regularly, if at all.

While Andrea logs onto work today, I’ll be doing laundry and packing to go home. Once that is done I may do some more art or continue reading my book, Doppelgänger. Yesterday I prepped a couple of pages in my art journal and I might continue with one or both pages if I’m inspired.

Hopefully we’ll find some time after lunch to go for another walk. It’s considerably warmer today and it has finally stopped snowing.
