The WalMart snow bank is totally shrinking. I think there's more snow in the forecast for this weekend, though.

Darren took me to Sub Bay for a small poutine (that's the SMALL) and pizza. Later, we sat around and listened to the sound of each other's arteries hardening.

I mean, if you want to look out the window. You could sleep if you want, too. Your choice. It's pretty boring until Kingston anyway.

Well, new-to-us. And it wasn't that epic, either. I was only out for half an hour, round trip.

Just leaned out the front door and took this. Whee! I don't have to go anywhere today, so I'm happy!

We got a whole 2 inches of snow, almost. I went out later, after he left, and shoveled a clear path from the car to the front door. Also, this was last week.

Oh dang. Now everyone will know the flowers are fake.

We can't hide the garbage can anymore, either

I mean, we can hide it UNDER THE SNOW, but it's directly in front of the door now. That's only 24 hrs of accumulation, by the way. Garbage day was yesterday.

My favorite little Walking Guy

On Cornwall Island, on the way to the second bridge when you cross into the US from Cornwall. I took this while I was driving, and it barely made it into the shot. One day I'll get a better picture of my favorite little Walking Guy. It's like he's wearing a Boyfriend Sweater.

365.076 - Pinball wizard
I'm not into video games, RPGs, board games, or organized sports (I don't PLAY hockey, I just follow it). I go weak in the knees about pinball games, though. Do you know how hard it is to find pinball games these days? Ones that work? This one is Spider Man. I've only got the 3rd highest score, but given enough time and pocket change, I'll nab all the high scores!

Not that he was watching the game. He was wearing his Habs jersey, though, and they did win. Against Nashville. And we don't like Nashville.

4 exits for a town of less than 50,000. Cute, huh?

Light snow, my foot.

In the ongoing war between me and the Weather Network, I offer up this as evidence that I'm right and the Weather Network is on crack. Who drives into a ditch during flurries and light snow? It might not have been a blizzard, but it was definitely a snowstorm.

This is just past rush hour in the food court at Cornwall Square. Half an hour earlier, it was more packed than this. The food court in this mall is overrun with blue-hairs. It's great that they get out and meet friends, but how come when the teenagers do it, it's called loitering?

The snow mountain has started.

In the back, you can see the Christmas lights in the traffic circle. In a couple of months, this baby mountain will block out the sun.

Those of you in the northeast, as well as Sweden, might not be impressed. I have family in Ohio that haven't seen the giant plows, though.

Cornwall's one-screen movie theater with some of the best popcorn I've ever tasted. I wonder if I'm allowed to just go there for popcorn. This is where I took Darren to see The Incredible Hulk for his birthday. We sat in the balcony.

Around here, Nov 29 is kind of late to be out boating.
