The X-training Begins!

This morning I pushed 7-8 centimetres of heavy, wet snowman snow off the front steps and walk. 5 or so to come yet, plus some water falling from the sky may mean I head over to Plant instead of to practice tonight. Preston Street is STILL not open, so it's a good trod to the bus in what may well be less than ideal conditions. I should take advantage of Plant this week, as next week begins the three week maintenance closure. So naturally, today's photo is a nice Caymanian sea grape silhouetted against a sunset.

Oh no!!! (It's funny, I was just thinking about you yesterday & hoping that this winter would not hold quite as much of the solid-state H20 cross-training!)

That is such a beautiful pic.

They keep calling for snow here..nope not yet. Just rain all the time.

I really want to try skiing, but living in the Florida of Canada, isn't going to happen yet..:-((

Snow. Poor poor Wendy! At least your pool isn't an outdoor pool!

Shoveling. Bleah.

I've only shoveled snow once before and was amazed how heavy that white fluffy stuff could get.

And I think that's the first sea grape tree I've ever seen (most have been just small plants). Lovely sunset!

In fact it was more pushing than shovelling on account of the weight of the snow!

Glad the sunset appealed to you folks!

Hey, I was just searching quickly for snow landscape pictures for a watercolor class tomorrow and came back to this. I finished painting this photograph this week and it came out okay! Thanks again!
