Happy Tuesday.

Happy Tuesday.
Starship (https://youtu.be/K1b8AhIsSYQ) may have built their city on rock and roll, but this subarctic city was built on snow. Well, not really. It’s just that when you’re deep in it (deep in the hoopla? And if you know this reference you’re a rock star!) and you have to dig your way out the door, it only feels like that.

But then again, if something feels that way, then it probably is that way, and since we just came through a weekend storm with winds that gusted to 100 km (62 mi), dropped 12 cm (4 inches) of snow, and caused an overcast that gave us only about four hours of daylight, how it feels counts for a lot.
But thankfully the storm has passed and sun should be on its way. Happy Monday.
Outside, it feels like this.

But inside, it feels like this.

Happy Saturday.
Not very glamorous, but definitely required!

And from the practical to the sublime.

Happy Friday; happy weekend.
This large snowpile was created after our parking lot was ploughed. There was a lot of snow there!

The neighbourhood children will have a lot of fun there on the weekend.
Happy Thursday.

Happy Wednesday.
Here’s our roof edge showing the successive layers of snow, snow melt with icicles and then more snow.

It looks like a small nudge might easily bring down this ice-snow ridge, but it’s actually up there quite solidly.
Inside, my M is watching the Raptors basketball game and making a wonderful dinner. The Raptors won!
Happy Tuesday.
… are a nice contrast to what we have going on outside right now.


Happy Monday.

Happy Winter!
Our rise in temperature caused this snow canopy to develop. You can see where the door has shaved off some of the snow; whittled it down so to speak.

You might be wondering why we haven’t knocked it down. Actually, it’s attached up there rather solidly, and secondly, that’s a lot of snow. If we knock it down, we will have to shovel it off our steps, and since it has become warmer, the snow has become denser and heavier.
That’s probably more than you wanted to know about snow. 😉
Happy Tuesday.
