Family Day in Canada.

To-day is FAMILY DAY--- in Canada--a day to get outside-- ski--ice fish--walk---We are sitting on the edge of a snow storm--15 to 25 cm of snow is supposed to hit us to-morrow----Just what we don't need-more snow! 
This is Himself out trying to clear the driveway a few days ago--then, there're the Chihuahua trails  to keep open for Lopez--  and yesterday, I gave the neighbour who ploughs the driveway, a few more 20 dollar bills to cover his gas for his machine-- He was telling me that gas here is up to  almost $2 a gallon --To-day is like, "the lull before the storm"--All is quiet on the western front, as Mom used to say.

Son #2, the Pilot son just called--said he is not going for tea with the Queen as she has Covid--  Yu know , he is over in Britain , using their Sim-----This is a picture of it! Imagine sitting in there for 4-5 hrs as they practice what to do , in all sorts of emergencies!

Enjoy to-day----"Keep a stiff upper lip" as Dad used to say! ---  Hugs to all of yu!

    Enjoy your lull before the storm. Hoping this is your last snow...ENOUGH. Also hoping some of the kids pop in. Play your piano.

    Happy Family Day! You have a beautiful family.
    $2.00/gallon for gas would be wonderful.we’re up to $5.00/gal in Southern California.

    We're supposed to get 15-25 mm of rain tonight and tomorrow because its warmer in southern Ontario. I hope you don't get all that snow. You have no place left to put it. Lopez must really hate this. Hope Beau is ok. Let Annemarie above know our litre is much smaller than their gallon. Have a good Family Day.

    Well, lordy. HOPE you don’t get that much snow! You appear to have more than enough!

    Glad that son #2 is NOT having tea w/poor Queen Elizabeth. Hope she recovers quickly.

    LOVE the Winnie the Pooh meme. One of my favorite!

    HUGS and pats on the head for Beau and Lopez.

    AND mega-hugs for YOU!

    Enjoy whatever you do on Family Day, is everything closed? Like it is here, on our remembering earlier and smarter Presidents Day? Hoping you don’t get more snow, what a weird world, not well planned at all!

    That simulator looks fascinating! Your Son #2 must keep sharp to stay safe in the skies, for sure. We have a cold front coming in this afternoon... the wind is picking up and making it feel colder... and we might get either snow or freezing drizzle overnight and into tomorrow.

    Hope you enjoy your holiday!
