Merry Christmas to everyone in Vancouver. Today looks like the snow is going to give us a break, thank God. What an insane December 24, 2008 it was! Today I was able to get out, but last night I was stuck like a fork in a turkey. The snow is melting slowly, I only have 40 inches of snow on my front lawn……. This will go down at the whitest Christmas Vancouver has ever see in history, “Winter WonderLand 2008″…
Have fun and go visit your families!

Now I’m starting to get worried. It’s 10:14 am December 24th 2008, and the snow doesn’t want to stop here in Vancouver. I don’t care if you own an SUV or even if you own a tank but with this amount of snow I’m not sure anything can help you get through it. How is everyone going to get to their destinations for tonight’s festivities? How?! I’m supposed to go to my parents tonight for Christmas Eve, but I don’t know if that is going to happen. They haven’t plowed the side streets in my neighbourhood since it started snowing, so now it’s like 2 feet high or more? I need to go measure it. This is nuts though, I need to go shovel another dump of snow, argh! Time to snap a few photos as well. Apparently we got 5 inches of snow and we are getting another 7 inches!!!
I tried shoveling my sidewalks but it’s a lost cause. I give up until it stops snowing… Oh well it’s Christmas right? So let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
Merry Christmas to everyone who visits the blog. Stay warm and hopefully you can dig out of the snow to visit family.
L eave a comment perhaps?
Ciao,

It looks like the snow will officially be here for Christmas. I snapped a bunch of photos from my front yard yesterday, day and night shots. My East Vancouver neighbourhood looks like a winter wonderland. Then we finished the day with a nice BBQ, that I took photos of as well. Go look at the bbq steak photos they will be sure to make you hungry yum. Ok enough of this blog stuff for today, it’s 7:45 AM and it’s time for a nice espresso.
Today’s to do list:
Enjoy the photos and leave a comment people! Bada Boom…

What a crazy, snowy day here in Vancouver. I snapped photos around East Van during the day. I didn’t feel like venturing too far, even though I do own an SUV. It looks very peaceful outside (11:39 pm), white drifts of snow all over the place. Anyhoo, this blog post is about the photos, good night.

I created a new graphical header for the Christmas season (LOOK UP). I had an hour to spare this Sunday morning at 6:30 am and yeah this is what I did. I have nothing better to do at 6:30 am? Hmm, I guess not. Just looking at the new header makes me cold, haha.
Looks like Mother Nature did a nice dump of snow on Vancouver last night while we were all sleeping. It looks like at least 3-4 inches of snow, maybe more. White Christmas here we come. Here are a few snap shots I took this morning (8:20 am now) of what I see when I open my front door here in East Vancouver (Renfrew Heights). Besides all the random parked cars, it looks very relaxing and calming to see everything blanketed with a nice coat of white. All the street garbage is hidden, no foot tracks in the snow, just virgin snow, gotta love it.
9:20 am – Just finished shovelling all the snow on the city sidewalks and my sidewalks, that was a good work out.
