Happy Valentine's Day!

Though it's been a mild winter, Valentine's Day was white here in the Maritimes.
It was a beautiful crisp day to spend time with the one you love, and warm enough to enjoy a short walk outside.

I hope you all had a wonderful day!

The Big White Yo-Yo

Nature can't decide whether we're suppose to have Winter or not....
After several weeks of unseasonably warm weather, Winter seems to have decided that it's hasn't given us a fair chance yet.... as the storm hit us Tuesday night we experienced the season in all it's not-so-wonderful splender: High Winds, blowing snow, blizzard conditions - and to top it all off - every school and social group closed for most of the day Wednesday. When I checked the HRM School Board's web site at 4am, they had already annouced every school in the metro area would be closed. The first Snow Day of the year, and man were the kids excited!

According to the weather bureau, we're suppose to get more of the white stuff this weekend... we'll see whether that materializes or not...we've had our fair share of false alarms this year.
