My Name is Cliff

 

It was on Monday Feb 17 that I watched the trunk disappear:


 I saw the truck back into that driveway and disappear.

The temperature that day was below -10°C. Then came the hot air from the south. With CO2 and acid rain, lots of acid. 

By Feb 27, 2025, CO2 levels had reach 426.62 ppm

That was up from 423.75 in November 2024

The rains came in Tuesday Feb 25,  warm from the south,  greater than +10°C . I am concerned that these may be  early "April" showers about to bring early "May" flowers when the ground is still covered in thick wet heavy snow - a sponge.

It might be an ominous Spring for "Daffodils":


 

 When the snow melts_

 


On Friday Feb 28 the truck was found!

 


 Note how the level of snow has fallen - the street sign in front of the side of the truck is now 3/4 clear of snow ironically making it hard to distinguish it from the truck.


 Not really?

 



 "Canada" is always ready to rescue "damsels" et al in distress. 

We know our good fortune is to have the pot of gold in Canada -

Venus in the arms of the Moon

 It was clear for our region last night. So we braved the cold and the very icy wind off lake Simcoe   to see a 47-hour old Moon 5% illuminated:




 And Venus

 



 And then we are not as young as we remembered!

 


 So we returned home.

 

 - too frozen to be wobbily, but still WOB
