I went to Canada to visit my brother and his family for the Christmas break. They live near Edmonton and the forecast was snow and cold. And the forecast delivered exactly that.
I had an enjoyable time, albeit with most of it spent indoors, where it was warm and cozy. I enjoyed some tasty turkey for our Christmas dinner and then spending time playing games (Exploding Kittens!!!), solving puzzles and hanging out. A very relaxing and merry Christmas.
I had a long layover in Vancouver, due to a delay in my flight to Edmonton. So, I was definitely not this guy. If was cold, but clear, on the first morning, so I took a short walk in the snow The maintenance crew took the opportunity to flood the outdoor rink, where the water was sure to quickly freeze You can see a mule deer hanging out behind the bushes, while nibbling on them, hoping to forage for as much food as possible It started snowing Christmas Eve, making the Christmas even whiter The accumulation of snow was impressive Christmas morning with the new snow covering the old snowGerald (aka Sir Gerald T Fuzzington III) enjoyed his new toyGerald also tried to fit into the box the toy came in Ron (aka Captain Ron) was satisfied mostly with lounging around I got some lap snuggles from Apollo, whose daddy is my nephew NickI’m practicing my words for the next game of Scrabble I helped put together this 1000 piece puzzle, along with my two nieces (Erynn and Kelsie), my brother Steve and his partner, Leah.
