Holiday Greetings, humans! If you haven’t yet succumbed to frostbite or trampling-by-shopper, I would like to [actually, I am] wish you and yours (family, friends, worldly and other-worldly possessions, etc) a Merry Christmas Happy Hanukkah Super-Duper Kwanzaa happy holidays! As the sign says… if you’re not sure you can park here, then you probably can’t!

No matter how much of a Grinch you are (shame on you!), you gotta crack a little smile when you see an elderly couple walking hand-in-hand in the snow.

As luck wouldn’t have it, I had do some last minute shopping at the nuclear shelter/shopping mall known as Le Carrefour Laval (one of the largest in Eastern Canada I believe). That isn’t camera blur; the entire mall was actually coated in a surreal, blurry fog. Or so it seemed from all the noise and lights. I’m told that alcohol can cause that effect as well.



This was the view driving back from the mall; a cloud front being pushed away by clear skies. I really hope that it’s indicative of the times to come for 2005; I think most of us could use some clear skies.
