We can but dream--or look at old photos--here in Eastern Ontario, where Proper Winter has returned, and the Natural Order of Things has been restored. 40 cms of snow on the ground, nighttime lows of -15 to -18 sans windchill, daytime highs around -12 to -15, but sunny :)

I wouldn't be quite so blasé. You might be eaten before the next corner. Those beige shapes on the ground near Dougie's bike look suspiciously like sun-bleached bones of previous prey.
