What a beautiful day as I sit and
look out my window, the sun is stil
up there in the sky. I was beginning
to think it had disappeared. It makes
you forget all the bad weather we
have had in the past few weeks.
January was a month of storms.
Maybe we can look forward to
February being a month of good
weather. Wiarton Willie predicts six
more weeks of winter. It won't
seem as long if the sun shines most
of the six weeks.
Snowmobilers are also enjoying
the winter as I see many travelling
back and forth on the trail.
