Winter

 Last week we got hit by a rather significant snowstorm. It started around nine or so in the evening. I went for a walk while the snow was relatively light, out into the Glebe. There was wind, but the buildings provided an effective buffer. This first shot includes the domed structure of the Glebe Community Centre at left.

Passing through one street, I saw rabbit tracks come out of one driveway in the fresh snow, move along the sidewalk, and promptly go back into the next driveway. Rabbits are less active in winter, and this one must have decided that a return to the burrow was a good idea.

Another shot, closing in on home.

The brunt of the storm came in shortly after twelve thirty in the morning. This first shot out the window had the condo tower starting to fade in the distance.

Ten minutes later, it was gone.

The following night, after the storm had ended, another walk in the Glebe was called for. The roads in the neighbourhood are generally quiet at night, and were passable. The sidewalks, not so much. I kept to the roads.

I passed by Glebe-St. James United Church.

Snow was in piles along the roads. Some sidewalks had been shoveled or plowed.

A final shot, close to home. After this storm, another major snowstorm hit the city. The snow banks are now taller than me.
