Winter has arrived.

This greeted me this morning. Five more months to go.

Wow! Yet, I am in Toronto enjoying the warmth & sunshine today. We have widely varying weather in Ontario.

It's right on time. Usually around Remembrance Day.

I'm one of those odd people who actually likes snow
One year, leaving Algonquin Park on Oct. 1st, we saw snow.

We got a very heavy dump of the white stuff yesterday. A friend said he just had hummingbirds arrive. They must be resting on the way south.

Snowing like crazy today. I like snow when it’s in the mountains where it belongs, hate snow in the valley where I live.

No snow here, but I did turn on my heater yesterday for the first time this season.

When winter arrives I get dressed, go outside, face the wind, and say "come on winter. I beat you last year and I'm going to do it again." And then I put a poster on my apartment door. It says Think Spring.

It's called survival tactics. Winter isn't as bad as when I had to get up to go to work.

Amen! Having to go to work in bad weather was always a major hassle. Now, we just watch the weather reports, get some extras at the grocery store a couple of days before it snows, then ride it out.

Beautiful! I sometimes miss the snow - the watching it fall part. Not so much the other part.

For our first time back in snow, last winter (2019), after moving back to northern Colorado, we couldn't believe how much we missed the snow, living in northeastern Florida for 10 1/2 years. However, on Christmas Day 2010, it was snowing in Jacksonville, Florida. I got it on video. Come to find out, that it had snowed in Daytona Beach, Florida before.

This past Monday, getting 2 inches, was the third time it's snowed this 2020-2021 winter. We now rent/park our vehicle in a garage here, so no more taking snow off of it. Absolutely love that! But, still have to go to Boat/RV Storage and take the snow off of our boat's full-cover, each time it snows.

Each time it snows here, I get some video and photos of it.

Still running the a/c here in Houston. Humidity is down so that helps a lot.

My bedroom window faces a lamp post and when it's snowing I can lay in bed and watch it come down. Sometimes the flakes are huge. It's very relaxing if it's falling vertically. If the window is blowing it sideways, not so much.

Just heard on news that our high today was 85 but that a cold front is on its way. Lows may be in the 40's next week. Just turned a/c off for awhile.

Sounds lovely.
