I went out to find Winter! I have no backyard. My dog uses the overhang on the house to get there, I don’t think I will fit! Not sure if she can see her shadow, so I will deem it four more weeks of winter, that’s a win!
I got snowshoes for Christmas, I will see how they work out. I like snowshoeing. More recent years I have borrowed the bear paw kind and enjoyed it. I went once at night during a full moon with coworkers, so much fun! As a teen, I went with a Venturers group I belonged to. It was the first time I had ever been. The snow shoes were the old wooden ones. We had travelled up to northern Ontario to a provincial park. I had a faulty shoe. So my snow trek through waist high snow was one step on top of the snow, next step, my foot would go through the hole in the snow shoe and sink waist high. It was quite a hike, I got piggy backed and hauled out on a sled for the hike back. Felt like I dislocated my hips, could barely walk the next day! Still a great memory!
Maybe we can dig down to the ground and have a little fire and drink hot chocolate. Nobody will know because the snow has to be four feet high! Then we can make a tunnel and sleep in it with my groundhog dog! Sometimes when I’m in, I’m all in!
I would like to see St. George in the winter. It is beautiful in the summer, but I wonder how the building with the mill looks in the winter! We went to the ice caves a couple of years ago and saw someone go down hard on the ice. Not sure how easy it would be to do a rescue in there! All injuries aside it truly was a beautiful spot!
Most of my bucket list stuff is summer based. One winter thing I hope to do is go to the Ice hotel in Quebec, or the Winter Carnival there in general. I will make do with what I have, and make plans for more. Dreams are hope, glad to have it back!
