Salty and Snow

We haven’t had much snow here in Toronto this winter, so when I went to Ottawa I thought I’d have better luck with getting some salty snow pictures. Unfortunately they were coming out of a warm spell the week before so that was unsuccessful. While there I went for a bit of a hike in the hills of Gatineau Park. There I found snow and salty was mesmerized by the view. Though he was walking around with a bit of snow on his head.

Here comes Snowmageddon....

I thought i'd post this picture for those who will be snowblowing soon Homeowner clearing the snow from the driveway of his home in Unionville. ...and a few photos of the last one in 2008...

Snow Snow and more Snow!!!....

I love snow; I cannot explain in words how much I love snow. Well the act of snow falling mostly, when it gets all ghastly and dirty…well I don’t love it nearly as much then. I do love mountain powder, but alas, I live in Ontario…no mountains. So instead I must entertain myself with walking around the city while it’s snowing. Earlier it was High Park, however this time I chose Main Street Unionville as my area of choice. I know my friend who owns Palettera Custom Correspondences has been looking for more local shots of winter for a postcard series so I thought I’d try to get a few that she may enjoy. The last time I attempted this I ended up falling waist deep in a small river/lake in the area… luckily I’m always expecting to do such a thing and was quite waterproof, this time however I was not and stayed away from the water as best as I could.

Salty & Peppery Meet Snow….

The ongoing series of Salty & Peppery continued today after another snowstorm hit Toronto. I wasn’t here for the first one last week, given I was in Boston, so I took advantage of the opportunity to introduce Salty & Peppery to the snow and what fun they had! I’m too easily amused by these Characters.
