Jeremy,
Thanks for the bit of sunshine and open water.
Sunday the Annapolis River finally froze over (it is semi-tidal here and mostly salt). Yesterday really put the cap on things with -15C and another 15 of wind chill.
That said, the sun will shine for the next two days, making this place look like a 'winter wonderland'. It ain't much, but it is winter around here. In a couple of months, the maple trees will produce sap and all will be right with the world.
In the meantime, enjoy the sunshine (and the snowbirds).
Les
