HUNTING AND WOODSTOCK CHRISTMAS PARADE


Wayne has been out hunting several times since we have been here, although he has not actually seen anything shot. On this particular occasion he went out with Glen on 15th November and it was pretty miserable as it rained most of the day. It doesn't really appeal to me at all, especially having to sit still for so long in the cold.


Later that same night the rain turned to wet snow and it was also the night of Woodstock's Christmas Parade. We watched it for an hour and a half before the freezing weather got to us but it is pretty huge as trucks etc were still coming through Dundas Street when we left. These 2 young girls were having a great time watching the parade.



These pictures are of the parade and the square near City Hall where the lights were lit up on the huge Christmas tree.


These photos below were taken this same weekend on the back deck. This was the heaviest snow that we had so far this season. We never tire of it and love getting out when we can. I try to walk to school most days which is a great experience although some days have been a bit treacherous when the footpaths ice up or when you have to trudge through slush after a thaw.
