The past 10 weeks or so have brought us constant winter weather with very cold days and regular snow, more so compared to the past 2-3 years during January and February. But the past few days really brought down quite a lot of snow, bringing our neighbor Kurt two Sundays in a row out with our snow blower (so nice to have him handle that machine). Inside we have however nice flowering plants; one needs to appreciate the small things in life.....
Our young nephew Wil studies in northern Ontario from where he sent us last week a photo of his team during an outdoor ice hockey tournament. A very Canadian kind of event.....
Opa Vandenboom would have turned 95 a few days ago. He had a last good couple of years here in his retirement home in Fonthill, so close to his two daughters. Remembering the many games of Rummikub played with him after bringing him his favorite cup of Tim Hortons coffee. And it would have been my father's 105th birthday this month as well. Also already 12 years ago that I spent a year working in Colombia. Recently shared with somebody this photo of a weekend in the coffee zone.
