My Weekend Winter Adventure- January 2021

               Over the weekend, I had the chance to go out for a walk with my dad and I found this to be a photo op for content and you know this is content in the bag for me. Gives me the opportunity to actually create content for you guys. Anyways we went to McLaughlin Bay Reserve which really is only a few minute drive from the house for us and close. We got there and there it trust me it was a busy place but don't worry we stayed our 6 feet distance from people despite this pandemic going on right now that is the most important thing. We walked about 2 hours and I thought honestly we were not going to far in but 2 hours my butt we ended up going that long and honestly that's OK, I need to do 2 hour walks from time to time. I know it was painful on my knee going though the snow. Anyways i had a Chickadee on my hand and my dad got a good still of the bird looking at the camera. Also the way the snow was beautiful and was really nice.

       Nature was definitely on my side as I got a picture of a Squirrel posing for the picture, got a pic of an Cardinal as well. The picture on the right of this text  is branches that reach across the path above the pathway which is really cool and I took a few different types of pictures actually but you can find them on on my Instagram for all the pictures that I have posted up for you guys. Honestly there is so much I can say about my Hike and yeah we interacted with a few people as they always said hi to us. Either way it was really nice to actually get out and just walk and get out in nature and maybe I need to do this more often and I think that is what I am going to do today is get out and actually walk and enjoy my time out and about. That is what I have to say and I hope you enjoyed this post and be sure to be on the lookout for an additional post not from me but from Matt as he wants to update you on the progress on the website work that is being done behind the scenes.

Snow Has Already Started!

           The snow is already here in Ontario, Mother Nature did not wanna wait till the New Year or around Christmas this year and that's OK as long as it is not a lot of snow that is what matters to me and it wasn't much and it didn't stay down too long so that was fine too as well. I love to see snow but when it keeps on snowing and snowing then I start to dislike it as I am tired of the thickness of snow and walking in the snow especially but that is the Canadian weather for ya. It does get pretty insane from time to time in the way of the weather here but as Canadians we are very use to it. I wasn't expecting it to be till around now but we sure got some snow here in Ontario. Mother nature has sure been unbelievable this year with heat, rain and now snow I cannot know what to expect from mother nature this year. 


            As you guys know I do not like going out in the rain especially or the snow but I have to deal with this weather and I have already brought out the winter jacket and boots for this very odd weather. We seem to get snow here when we are not suppose to have the weather it just shows up from time to time. I dunno how to explain mother nature's logic behind having snow when they tell you it's only 50% chance of it actually happening yet we got snow on Monday. Guess she wanted to give us snow after all no matter what percentage it is 20%, 50% or 90% they gave us snow this week on a day we weren't suppose to get it honestly but ended up getting it no matter what.


             It sure doesn't help the fact I kept on saying I wanted the snow and only I would open my big yap to wanting snow after all. Maybe for once Mother Nature, she listened to me? Maybe I just decided to jinx the weather? I know someone that Larry and I both know will not be happy whatsoever with the recent snow fall and will give him and I both the look for wanting this snow here in Ontario. I am ready for the weather change and I know with this cold and snow my knees will be a troublesome with pain and aches and pains but nothing I am not use to or cannot handle, I am more then able to handle this weather but extreme weather, I cannot handle so much like freezing rain or snow storms and so on.

Am I Looking Forward To Winter?

                 So am I looking forward to snow this winter? No! Not really, it's driving me insane with this cold weather at the moment with my knee, pain and possible arthritis which is another blog post for later on in the week, hint, hint, double hint 😉


                 I mean the snow is nice around this time of the year, especially around Christmas time and what not but before or after the holidays having it non stop is would drive you nuts after a while and trust me what I have heard this Winter as I'm in Ontario that we are getting snow and boy I am not happy one bit the fact its here and I gotta deal with it and especially with my knee.


                  One good thing is, I can play in the snow with my niece and nephew especially, make a fort, make snowballs for a snowball fight, snow angels and just have plain good old fun with my niece and nephew. So yes and no I am looking forward to winter, as for the no it is mainly my knee that is driving me nuts and that's the post for tomorrow that I will be writing about. One other thing I sure look forward to with the snow is having a white Christmas and I think we will end up having a white Christmas as long as the white stuff stays on the group between now and Christmas we should have  a white one this year up here in Ontario. However, there are pros and cons to snow and I think I pretty much put my opinion on am I am looking forward to Winter, what do you guys think? Are you looking forward to winter? Let me know!
