Reflections and Refractions

I've posted this picture before... just with an aweful lot more snow. Here is the Credit before the rain yesterday.

Thoughts for today:

1. Well, I had 2 quick visits to make that were complicated by the fact that the 401 was closed between here and there owing to an explosion of propane depot. Here is the link to the Star story. So far, the only death appears to be that of a firefighter - although it may be natural causes or semi-natural causes. They haven't said what the cause was, but it sounds like it could be a health thing. Luckily for me, I discovered this before I left and was able to warn my first visit folk about the problem and arrange to meet slightly later... then I drove a long way on city streets to get there, which fortunately weren't too busy. Then I went to visit my Grandparents - no road problems there - but I took the 407 back - so I saw more of the city streets of the big city... Ironically - I made a big fuss about meeting near the highway to avoid driving in the city - all to no avail. The visits were nice, although, but I think I"m running a bit behind schedule now.

2. This is my last post as a psuedo-northern blogger... tomorrow... I will be in the north (knock on wood). I'm sure the next few days are going to be mind bogglingly busy and full of new experiences. I am nervous in an excited sort of way. Its going to be a big change, but I think a good one.

3. I'd better get myself in gear and see about cramming socks into the corner of my second bag and all the assorted cleaning I need to do before I run out of steam... I do have one last plant to post from the garden.. so hopefully I can snag the picture now and post it once I'm done everything.

Cheers,
