Snow? In April? But of course. Come to Canada, Scott,
there's still lots of it here as well. Well, there is
in Ottawa, anyway. We also have large piles of what
appears to be dirt on the sides of the road. In
actuality, they're just piles of the snow, salt and
dirt they pile on the roads to keep us from killing
ourselves while winter driving. Once the spring melt
starts, the snow melts off the top and the rest just
looks awful.

BTW, Amanda, speaking of snow... did the book arrive
yet (with the photos of all our snow I sent so you
wouldn't feel deprived <g>)?

Sheryll, who is still catching up on posts and forgot
to add that we have great fall leaves, too - the
Gatineau Hills just across the river are famous for
them. And we have maple syrup, and good cheddar and a
Hershey factory close by. And I may be the only one on
this list who noticed the significance of Angela
throwing a McCain's fry at Neil the other day (Angela,
I KNOW you come from the home of the best potatoes
ever!)
