Photo Update

I have been laid low, very low, by a flu that has taken up residence in my hips and lower back rendering me somewhat useless. Actually, somewhat useless is looking on the bright side. I am very close to completely useless. So here are some photos of Family Day, a provincially-mandated holiday here in Ontario, that happened last Monday. We went skating on the lake. A few days before this photo was taken temperatures shot up to around 12 degrees above freezing and we lost most of our snow. Thus, the spring-like conditions. A week later and the snow is back, as well as the cold; but it is almost March and there is room for hope.
I am too tired to decide which photos should stay and which should go. Take your pick.










Me, skating.
That little dot in the middle of the lake is Joseph. I should have taken a picture of Benjamin standing at the side yelling at the top of his lungs for his younger brother to stop risking his life and come back to shore. Actually, just return to the picture of Ben next to the tree at the top of this post and picture him shouting.
This is Joseph coming back to shore.
Don't try this when it's warm.
