Storm Damage

Yesterday's snowstorm turned into ice rain and high winds at night. Very hard to sleep with the wind howling and the frozen rain clattering at our windows.

This morning we got up and a big branch was blown off one of the trees, hitting and crushing the soccer goal post in the schoolyard across the street. Good thing no one was playing soccer in the middle of the night!

Our neighbour's roof was damaged by the storm too. A lot of guys are up there now hammering away.

You can also see my neigbours have moved out and left a chair, hassock and coffee table. From across the street they look like they were in good condition, however they are probably now all ruined because of sitting out in the snow and freezing rain. I wish people would use freecycle or freeTOreulse (a local group similar to freecycle) another similar service when they have stuff like that. I hate to see furniture ruined and turned into landfill, especially since Toronto is taking most of their trash all the way to Michagan.

March 1 Snowstorm

I'm too sick with a bad cold to go out and take any photos of the snow, so here's one from the inside. This was a much heavier storm than I expected. The weather forecast just said a little ice rain. Instead we got about 15 CM of snow and heavy winds. The snow has stopped for now but it's still blowing around.

We are having a little storm right now. I'm going to go out and take some photos of it soon, if my camera co-operates. It's been freezing up a lot.

For now, I bring you last year's snowstorm with this photo.

This was a weird day where there was a thunderstorm and snowstorm. Thunderstorms usually only happend durring hot weather.

Now we are having a day where a lot of snow melted and it will all freeze again tonight. It makes walking around kind of dangerous.

This is the big mall downtown. It's somewhere I have spent a lot of time recently but haven't been able to find what I want.

I like the angles in this photo.

Good Catch is a store that I visited with my friend Sheryl. She was writing about them for a blog. It's a really cool place with a lot of organic food products, jewelry, art, pet stuff and other various things. Like a modern version of a good old fashioned general store. I want to show them my artwork, I think it would do well in there.

We're getting some snow
