G'morning Sunshine

I woke up this morning to another light snowfall. What you can't see in the photo is that it has stopped snowing, and has started raining. Snow, rain, and really low temperatures; by the time I got to work I had ice in my toque from the rain. By the time I got home the pavement had patches of ice and slush. Lovely.

PS. For those unfamiliar with the term "toque", it is not pronounced "toke", but is pronounced "took" like "Peregrin Took, hobbit of the Shire", and is otherwise known in Australia as a "beanie".

PPS. Yes, I am aware there is a rug and a girl's thong on my balcony. It has been windy recently. That is the only explanation I will offer.

You know... when you said 'girls thong' I was thinking something completely different...

Hehe. Just so you know, in Canada, they call the footwear "flip-flops". Seriously.

A girl's thong means only one thing to a Canadian. But I am Australian, and like to confuse them. :)
