Snows squalls happen almost daily.
Santa isn't the only one in red here.

Weather on the flats of Ferndale.
"Wooden" you know, Wiarton residents brave the weather.

A CHRISTMAS TREE STORY

The hunt is on for our Christmas tree.
This year it will be a real tree from our property.
The house is ready for the holidays.
The latest snowfall makes our selection difficult.
Dressed for winter and off to our back yard. The choice was this small pine nestled in a growth of larger trees.
Our tree decked out and waiting for Santa.

IT HAS SNOWED!!

Colours of summer are fading.
Great weekend to go exploring.
(if you have your "winter tires" installed)Even the Wiatron Willie statue has covered his eyes to this weather.
Trees take on a fresh colour and shape.
Water, wind, snow and temperature are now reflected in the lake.
Driveways are still there but camouflaged by nature.

What a treat to just stroll in our great outdoors.
It has snowed every day for the last three days with low temperatures of -3c.
