Westport harbour

After Narrows Lock, we went on to Westport. JB is good driving, not so good sitting.

After seeing the swans, we pressed on. I'm glad we went when we did. We anticipate snow or rain tonight and tomorrow. Ottawa is getting 20 - 40 cm. Us, they aren't sure. We may be on the cusp of the rain/snow mix. JB has massage therapy and a lunch with his friend tomorrow. We'll see what we get here.

I just finished clearing the sidewalk, as the snow melts, then refreezes at night.



My snowman has kicked the bucket. More on him later.

The rocks aren't as impressive as elsewhere, but they are pretty. At this time of year, the snow melts and freezes.



The creek is likely still moving under the ice and snow.



Someone has made a skating rink!



This is such a sweet view into Westport.



It's still cold, but lovely.



I climbed the bridge. It was quite slippy.

This is a lovely spot, in spring and summer, even fall! The spring was running well.

I love the rocks! Once upon a time in another life I was hoping to be a geologist...studied geology for a year before pausing to be a mommy.

Wow! So much snow. We missed the big snowfall while in Illinois. I hope you’re protecting your back when you shovel all the snow this season.

Still looking very cold, and that last photo, quite a hoot as though it might be an owl hiding there!! ( no pun intended).

Jenn - love the "home-made" ice rink. I am sure that is how many a professional hockey player got his start!

Our neighbor has several springs on her property, and it is interesting how they remain unfrozen throughout the winter!
