Let It Snow, Let it snow...

Yesterday we got hit by a big snow blizzard, from the moment I woke up till the time I went to bed it snowed continuously. I love seeing it snow, I love going out and playing in it. Most Canadians, however, hate the snow. Their dislike for it is immense... I guess for a tourist who hasn’t been exposed to it like this, makes it more exciting.

The next morning I got outside, appropriately dressed, and walked right into the thick of it. Almost thigh deep, with snow shovel in hand, I was ready to make my mark. I was tempted to make a maze out of the whole backyard, something like a hedge maze but with snow. I got a few shovels in and realized my face was turning numb, so the crazy snow maze project will be put on hold for a while.



My girlfriend’s dog has to go outside to do his business and on days like this I feel sorry for the poor bugger. He seems to enjoy it though so its ok I guess, this picture is pretty funny though... yep that’s him doing his business in a foot of snow. Haha



Then it was time I did some exercise and dig out my girlfriends car, this is probably the number one reason Canadians dislike the snow. Which is fair enough I guess, if you had to dig your car out everyday just so you could drive somewhere it would get annoying after a while. But it was fun for me. To me snow is what truly makes a cool Christmas and being in Australia you don’t get to experience that at all. So I say let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

I would love to see it in person, but I can imagine the novelty wearing off pretty quickly! Heh
