crows to burnaby

Yesterday, here near Philadelphia, it was beautiful and sunny and warm. The sun was so bright and blazing that it made me realize just how small and puny our winter sun is north of the border, even as far south as we are in Vancouver. The difference in intensity was obvious. We walked around outside for a bit, just because I hoped that soaking up a little extra light would help me through the next few months of grey.

Today it is steadily pouring a solid rain and the weather looks exactly like what we left behind in Vancouver.

I thought half the point of travel was to get somewhere that feels different for a little while...?

Ah well - all the more reason to stay in, get a fire going in the woodstove, and eat delicious turkey 'til we burst.
