Good Sunday morning from Winnipeg. This week, Mother Nature reminded us that it is still winter (until the vernal equinox on March 20th). A major system blew through (literally) on Monday and Tuesday – starting with rain, then, as the mercury dropped, changing to freezing rain, finally changing to snow, and blowing snow, with winds gusting up to 50 mph – and we got back into the deep freeze with ‘high’ temperatures in the middle minus teens. … Continue reading

After four relaxing days with friends in Niagara-on-the-Lake in Ontario, I am finally completing my move from the USA to Canada by emptying out a storage locker in Delaware, and driving a rental box van (containing the contents of said locker) back to Winnipeg – a four day journey (26 hours total driving). … Continue reading

The training wheels have been taken off and thrown into the nearest snow drift (before it melts)!
Another very typical and very enjoyable Sunday puzzle from Virgilius which I was able to complete at a fast canter, but there was some head scratching to understand the parsing of some of the answers before I could write the hints.… Continue reading
