There was a lot of snow up in the Highlands which was really pretty to see though.<BR/><BR/>I love winter in Canada. Where I lived with my dad we would get feet of snow (sucked when the power went out though). And I loved living on the lake where we could see all the ice built up and the ice mountains people would climb (and blow up lol). It was just a really pretty place to live in the winter and even better in the fall when it looked like everything was covered in gold.<BR/><BR/>Winter in Alberta was too cold -60C with a wind chill was enough to turn fingers blue with the danger of frost bite. Didn't go out a lot there in the winter lol Very eerie seeing the flat plains with miles of snow and nothing else in site. <BR/><BR/>I was born during a really heavy snow storm (the car broke down on the way to the hospital :p made it to the hospital though after dad fixed the car) and people always tell me thats why I love the snow so much lol :)Jennifer Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528908250338974537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-71302940784748825932008-09-29T08:31:00.000-02:302008-09-29T08:31:00.000-02:30Thank you Rose.
