Special Bonus Picture -- Panoramic Snow & Tree
-------------------------------------
I've been enjoying the semi-mild slightly-less-painful winter weather we've been having over the last few days. I have made an effort to walk as much as possible to maximize on it. On Tuesday I did a big walk from Christie and Bathurst to yucky Yorkville. I smiled the whole time because the sidewalks were mostly clear, the sun was shining and I had my "Music for Travelling" mix on the headphones. God I can't wait to do that in a t-shirt rather than 2 sweaters, 2 pairs of socks, mittens, scarf, longjohns, jeans, boots and a parka. Took a few photos with the Great Wall. I even maintained my happy demeanor while stuck behind a group of smoking teenagers in a train underpass. I used to be a smoker but have since evolved into an incredibly intolerant non-smoker. I can't even be within 3 feet of a smoker out-of-doors, so I have no idea how I actually managed to inhale directly from the dart all those years.
Well they say we'll be getting more snow and a "return to winter" shortly. As if somehow it hasn't been winter just because the ice has melted enough that I can walk on sidewalks without slipping to my death.
