Also, on the way there was an OPP vehicle. It was funny watching people roar up beside us, pass, then watch their speed. Highway #7 is wicked for speed. It's 80 km/hour, but people go much faster. A truck trailer had just passes this truck trailer, and then the OPP vehicle mosied up behind it.
The snow fences are still up, and rightly so.
The lakes and rivers are slowly melting. There are geese on the ice flow. This is a drive-by shooting, so you cannot see them well. They are there, though!
Lots of geese in this snowy field. Just so you get the picture, it was a drive-by shooting.
Farther along, the three white cars passed the OPP vehicle. Then hovered. The truck in front of us, and behind the OPP, stayed put it, as we did.
Then, an ambulance, lights flashing. On 417, with four lanes, it sailed by. A troubled soul, safe in the arms of the paramedics, on their way to be cared for in hospital.
This takes me back, a day care class going walkies.
We were shocked with the snow banks in Ottawa!
This is our old house. We moved here from Toronto in 1980.
Someone needs a new roof! I couldn't do this work, could you?
There is a bit of snow!
Aunt B has some lovely plants. She gave me the plant that the tree frogs like. (I put it outside in the summer.) She has a green thumb, as well as five children. They lived all over the world, as Uncle B was in the military.
Aunt B has a lot of grandkids and several great grands. She's lived in her bungalow since 1966.
We ordered lunch in, it wasn't great, but there you go. As we left the snow was quite awesome.
Construction everywhere. It looks like an extension of Hunt Club Rd., as well as Richmond Rd.
I'm always amazed by how soon we are suddenly into rural territory.
Back in Perth, this home has a wonderful garden. I am looking forward to seeing it bloom. Lots of homes in Perth have been converted to apartments, this one doesn't appear to. They are often at work in the garden.
Home, and safe. Annie was happy to get outdoors in the sun. I wore shoes today, for the first time this year. The sidewalks are clear. Today, we expect rain on top of the snow, and warmer temperatures. We shall see what we get!
