Adventures on my Paper Route – Getting There!

So it’s not really ON my paper route – I took these pictures in my own front yard. But I was on my way home from my paper route, so I’ve decided this counts.

I just wanted documentation that spring is coming.  It is! And soon I’ll be able to leave my winter coat at home.

Gotcha!

Doesn’t it look like this daffodil is about to attack? I haven’t seen the neighbourhood feral cat in a few days….

Adventures on my Paper Route – Ice

Ah, the pleasures of living in southern Ontario.  Instead of the forecasted mountain of snow, we’re having an ice storm. Power is intermittent. If it wasn’t so pretty it would be intolerable.

It took a bit of bravery to deliver my papers today. Having to listen for cracking from above and dodging falling branches.

Timber!

Living in an old part of town is pretty, but it’s also pretty dangerous when the ancient behemoths come crashing down.

I didn’t expect to post two of my adventures in one week, but today certainly deserves honourable mention.
