Beckham moves to TO, and it`s snowing at last.



Not much blogging as I am only "home for the holidays" on the weekends.

In a few hours my lift will arrive and we will drive south for a few hours, back to course work for another five days.

That is of course if the weather is playing ball. It has just started to snow, I took the above and since then it has continnued to snow , making a much better picture if I could be bothered to set up the lighting rig again.

This is the first of the season, though a new friend from Thunder Bay says the -28 which they got on Friday is normal for this time of the year. Here it continnues at about -2 and even rains on occasion. The garden was looking particularly vast , what with the lack of plants and everything, but the 8 foot christmas tree carcass which arrived yesterday, in the centre of the composition, makes it appear a little poky!

I am so tied up in course work, and the tv only gets one channel, that it took a while for the momentous Beckham news to filter through. Apparently now he has signed for LA he will appear in Toronto at some point in the "Soccer" season. Toronto have a new soccer team that some wag suggested they call Toronto SC as football is already taken. The season tickets have sold very well here, where during the world cup us "immigrants" shamed the loal population with a impressive show of fervour" for our Portugese/Italian/Greek roots.
