Go Fly A Kite!

It is raining today at plus too much. So I thought I would go back to a fine January day when all was right in the world.

Let us fly away and leave our troubles behind us - wagging their tails as it were, although this kite does not have an obvious tail.





How is that for a frosty sunny Sunday? Can you see the shadow of the kite? I am trying to portray a 3-D event on a 2-D screen.

All the best,

Tuesday - skating or the wobbly old bird. Actually, no selfies, please.

And for colour:


Wednesday Feb 15 - fateful day last year. This year better - we have a grip on winter:

Sat sizzling Summer the 18th and sunny hot 11C PLUS at the least:



Sunday was also hot and sunny - just went over to Tudhope with Vicki:


I went biking on Monday/Family Day - morning and afternoon in Orillia, and then in the gym!
And today I went back to Carthew Bay and there were some new tracks. And then it started to rain!
I snowshoed, used the strider and bike in the gym and then swam 200m - and I still weigh too much!

W O B - where the "w" is taking on an unwanted meaning.

Maple Syrup - another blog!

Yes, I am afraid I have sooooooo many images from Shaw's Sugar Bush that you will have to wait until I have digested the delicious pancakes and sausage. I went out skiing today to try and return to a less spheroidal shape - the tides are pulling me every which way. And as usual I took too many to show you. However, for my friend Jörg who misses the snow and skiing, skating style here are just 2 impressions:



And yesterday was spent with Donald at Carden, Centenial, and Grant's with some interesting encounters:



Weather has been great: yes MINUS a lot but calm and sunny - wob
