Just to let you know,

[Andrew]

Most Canadians are well aware of how horrible the weather has been this winter. Eastern provinces hit with about 20 feet of snow, Quebec has been buried as well but they get the dry snow and seem to like the winter more than most of the rest of the country. Manitoba has been in the deep freeze, Saskatchewan and Alberta received record snow falls and even up until last week were setting temperature records near minus 30. Ontario got all the way dow to minus 15 below along with 3.4 inches of snow that totally shut down everything in the southern part of that province. BC hit lows not seen for some years.

Knowing that some of you are still suffering under the duress of the lingering half-year-long season I do not want to cause any of you any undue pain or aggravation so I won't include a photo today. But, just to let you know, the daffodils (and lots of other stuff I don't know) are out in Victoria.

Have a nice day.

To be completly fair though, I think I was just trying to make myself feel better. Next-door in Alberta, 20 below without a cloud in the sky is fabulous. The sun has been non-existant here since October. I can work with the almost permanent cloud level of about 7 feet off the ground but the unending rain has really stiffled my ability to take photographs. You try at first but after weeks of it, just give up. There have been some wonderful shot from Canada, the US and around the world that perhaps I am just a bit jealous of.:sad:
