A Quiet Christmas Morning Drive

The big day has arrived. Our little city was gifted with a 'White Christmas'.
It's been a picturesque and peaceful day. We may have more of the white stuff coming in over the next few days. But this is what we went out and saw today.

Would make a fantastic artist work/live space.

We're on our way home.

A Few Christmas Lights

Took a drive around the Queens Park neighbourhood to check out the houses all decked out in lights. They did not disappoint. We even had a little snow to make the drive festive. They're blurry but they capture the memories of another Christmas.

Summer's beautiful Rose Garden in winter slumber.

Wood Ave., Morning Frost and Train Tracks.

 It's Sunday again and off we go for breakfast and a wee drive.
What a beautiful morning that greeted us today.
You'd never think that Christmas is less than a week away by the clear sunny sky.  
I'll take this as one of the best Christmas presents ever.
