I know that it's been forever since I did an update on the blog; but we really haven't been doing too much exciting stuff lately.
Most of the snow was gone by early January and the winter up to this point has been really nice. The day time temps average around 8 and we haven't been below freezing over night in over a month. We've also have had very little rain. And when it does rain, it seems to do it over night.
We go for daily walks in and around our park. There's a really nice trail that boarders the park; and takes you along a river. The river is a playground for all kinds of birds. Just today we were over there and were entertained by a flock of Canadian geese.
Depending on how high or low the tide is decides how far we walk along the river. There's a couple of low places along the way, and when the tide is high, there's no way to cross. A few weeks back we had a really nice big rainbow going across the river; but we didn't find the pot of gold, oh well, maybe next time.
We have also been going to the aquatic centre quite a bit; and have been enjoying the sauna, steam room and hot tub. We usually go in the evenings; as there are less kids at that time.
A friend of ours is coming for a weeks visit starting tomorrow; and we'll be taking her to all kinds of places. We're both looking forward to it.
We also both celebrated our birthdays recently; and we both enjoyed our days.

Hey, who do you hear from more than the Bayfield Bunch huh. Nice to see you've got yourselves updated. Got any of that cake left?? The snow pictures reminded me of early spring in Ontario. First time I saw Mike without a hat...wouldn't have recognized him. What's the plans for the summer?? A month from now we'll probably be on the long homeward trek somewhere:(( The Ranch people here want us to come back in November to ranch sit again while they go on a cruise. With the economy the way it is we'll be lucky to reach the end of our driveway....Oh well, we'll see. Keep the updates coming:)) AL.
Hey - cut that out. Not nice sending a picturesque scene of the bay/ocean when us Ontarians are still buried in snow ...just joking...today the sun was shining and the sidewalks were clear for walking although we're not duped into thinking spring is here, yet.
Okay...we got your message loud and clear last night x 3...some kind of glitch on your system perhaps.
Nice pix...the two birthday kids beaming with their cake - too sweet. Photo #3 reminds me of Pepe - strong resemblance you have there Mike.
Have fun in your travels...see you on your return.
The Acorn Gang.
