NOTHING ADO ABOUT MUCH

          "Twas the Sunday before Christmas and all through the blog
          Winter has arrived with driving for the holidays
          And a boy with his dog... "

After many days of not much happening, winter and our hectic Christmas travel season have arrived on the same day. The shore in our Beach neighbourhood is pretty-in-pink at the end of these short days. An unusually comfy beach chair waits forlornly by the cold waves. The boardwalk has been deserted by fickle day-tourists but reclaimed by local runners and dog walkers.



On this day the Toronto skyline is actually north of the setting sun, resulting in a rare silhouette. The sunset itself is cold but with a cosmic promise: the days will now get longer. Starting yesterday, our week's driving will add up to about 1,800 miles --- more details next Sunday. But little boys can be much more impressed and excited by Santa, a turtle and a dog...




From Pat and I to you and your loved ones,
Merry Christmas to All, And to All A Good Night!
