Much contrast to the tree you posted in the park in TO, Silveroid. People are getting grouchy. PEI and NB are burried. Close the curtains/blinds, eat ripple storm chips, hot soup, order up a few movies. Cribbage. Hunker down. Winning storm formula.
Edit: No storm yesterday and I received an order of coins. Good timing.

Quote: People are getting grouchy. PEI and NB are burried. Yup! This is our's and our neighbour's backyard - that's a full-sized trellis/archway and there's a tall picket fence and mature rhododendrons under there somewhere. The snow to the right (not in the photo) is taller than our studio/garage. This photo was before today's blizzard accumulations.

Hang in there East coasters, I like snow but not that much. Here on the wet coast the mountains got no snow and shut down the ski season.

I miss Halifax but not its winter. I live in the Midwest now and I already have blooms in my gardens with my crocuses. For some reason my microclimate allows me to have my flowers llike two weeks sooner then my family in the same county with the same species haha. Daffodils are still growing.

Can't complain in Winnipeg this year. We have had a fairly mild winter (by our standards anyway) and the city is nearly snow free now.

Just had another thought! I will never look at blast white coins in the same way again! I think mellow blue and see green surfaces over flashy lustrous surfaces sounds far more west coast than blast white over snowy devices . Have a nice eastern sprinter my fellow Canadians........................ honey where is the suntan lotion? Here in Victoria this morning sunny expected high 16-17 c.

Round two in mail box repair.  I think the plow boys are getting fatigued, the last two storms they nailed my mail box but in the 4 storms before that they didn't touch it lol.

 Here's what they took off our street! I didn't get a shot of the side of a car that was buried in a snowbank the plow peeled the metal off like a sardine can.

Was in Halifax yesterday, whole city was at a standstill. Roads so narrow many cars had the driver side mirror torn off. No parking on streets anywhere or you will be towed/fined. Talking State of Emergency. People keep walking around shaking their heads, mumbling - first day of spring, just incredible amounts, not shoveling anymore, now tunneling, send food.
We are now shoveling in shifts, sorry gotta go ... where are my gloves.
Mankini, still funny.

Not funny anymore.    We had the deck clear yesterday where I shoveled today. At least 30 cms and more where it blew, last night. Maple season delayed. Halifax Stanfield Intl airport had a really hard nasty landing in blizzard conditions. Almost bloody April now, c'mon.

These days so sunny and warm, that the kid complained about warmth in the car (and I usually drive with temperature set to 15-17)
