The dog and I just returned from a walk in the bush across the street from my house this evening.
Walking in the bush I finally spotted what I always relate to Spring, the "Trillium", the floral emblem of Ontario
. They are only a couple of inches tall so far and are not yet in bloom. In another couple of weeks I hope to see 100's of the white flowers on my trips up there.

I honestly haven't seen one single sign of spring yet. It's been cold, damp and rainy here everyday this week. This time last year, the local golf courses were open.
On a positive note, it is supposed to warm up some starting on Friday.

Jeez, at least we are only getting rain. I sure don't like the looks of Christian's and Joel's forecast.

, you are right. What a terrible forecast, this weather is sure screwed up.We normally have our first lift-in of the boats at the harbor this weekend, but due to the crappy weather it has been post-poned till the end of the month. My boat is still in storage
