Home and quiet time

Well winter came again here in Calgary. What is it about the weather here that makes it so that I can ride my Bike through December and January and then in early March I am back on Calgary Transit taking a couple of busses to work because the snow is bad the weather cold and the slush stopping my bike in a rut.

Spring is coming, I know it and I get up and walk to the bus stop knowing that soon I will be putting on a pairt of shorts again in the morning and biking in to work in the brightness of late looking morning. I also look forward again to getting out of work and then hitting the playground with the kids.

I have always loved Calgary since we moved here 10 years ago from rainy Vancouver but still I have never adjusted to the coldness of the winter, and don't believe anyone that says that the cold is refreshing or a great way to see different weather. I am sure that no Calgarian really likes having a frozen face or icy fingertips.

Come on Summer, I'm waiting for you!
