Softly, softly

Is how the snow fell the other night

The first one with staying power around here this fall

It would be nice if it stayed until Santa takes a tour through town this Sunday

Another summer on the wane . . .

Was it a fun one? Parts of it, yes.
And, now the countdown is on ;)

Happy Canada Day

Just can't get enough

no one playing golf today… not that I'd see anyone out there
