Toronto – Page 24

Darn! I write about how it’s been snowing on and off each morning for the past few days and guess what? It snowed a tiny bit yesterday evening and I guess it snowed a tiny bit in the night and unfortunately it’s been cool enough all day for the snow to stay on the ground.

It’s been melting away quickly before this … but now it’s staying. Boo Hoo.

I’ve had roses continue to bloom through the month of November.

Don’t get me wrong, it hasn’t been warm here, although we have had a few nice warm days here and there. Nope it’s just my crazy roses don’t know when to shut themselves off, and before you ask the last time I deadheaded any of them was the beginning of August so they’ve had plenty of time to get the message and shut down for winter.

Finally those lovely miraculous blooms are drooping. I thought I might continue to look out the window and be amazed at the perfect flowers for a while yet, but I guess last nights snow and cool temps finally got to them.

Every morning of the past few days it’s been snowing a little bit. I sometimes stay up well into the night and when I’m just going to bed at 4 a.m. or so I see the snow coming down.

It hasn’t been staying at all, but I think before long it will be cool enough that it will stay for a few days when it falls.

Here in Toronto we rarely have more than a tiny bit of snow that stays on the ground throughout the winter. Oh, we have snow banks that have built up from the heavy snow falls that we get, but if it’s not too cold of a winter it’s not uncommon to only see a bit of snow on the lawns. Late December and all of January are when we get the most snow, and when it’s most likely to stay for a while.

Have you had snow yet? Has it stayed on the ground?
