It’s is a very cold, cold day here in Saskatoon. This morning Environment Canada posted a temperature of -40℃. The wind chill made it feel like -53℃. Double and triple burrrrr! Made me think of the winters of 2009 and 2010 when Sheba and I did daily walks down by the river at the Sutherland dog park. The river was frozen over. We could walk on it. Sheba ran, of course. Steam rose from the river. I had icicles hanging in my nostrils.










The cold brought back these wonderful memories of our times down by the river. Tomorrow promises equally cold temperatures. I do love these times when I can just hunker down and just be. Feeling grateful I have shelter, heat and food. Day 12 of the Ultimate Blog Challenge in the bag!
I don’t know if this southern girl could stand the cold. But it looks absolutely beautiful.
Thank you!
Looks so pretty. I can’t get my dog to go out in the rain, let alone the snow! Sheba seems to be living her best life.
Lily, you’re not kidding about the cold! I have been in temps that cold, briefly, in Nebraska and in Calgary. I remember those experiences vividly. Now, I look across your stunning snowscapes (wow!) and it appears your dog is completely unaffected by the cold! Is that true? Thanks for the window into your weather day!
Kebba, photos were from winter in 2009 and 2010. The cold was more stable and the river frozen over solid. We were dressed and younger, not feeling cold. We could walk and run on the river. The river seldom freezes over now for quite a few years.
Lily, Wow! And when it froze solid, did you ever go skating on it?
No, not a skater. Skated a bit when I was a kid. My old skates dried up and tossed.
