Home Sweet Home

The first thing I did when I woke up this morning - was run and look out the window. What a relief. I could now see the cars in the parking lot! Next up, log on to weather.com and check out the forecast. Yikes, I only had about two hours before the start of snow flurries. I packed up quick, grabbed a bagel and was on the road. The route to the highway was still pretty icy and snow covered. I passed three cars spun out in the ditch in the mile and a half it took me to get to the QEW. I drove at about 20 miles and hour 'til Niagara Falls and then it cleared up and I was O-F-F !!

Betty (my GPS) was a capable co-pilot and navigated me home safe and sound. I arrived shortly after noon and just in time for lunch with Mom!

Happy to finally be Home



After being snowed in for several days Mom needed to get out and pick up some supplies. We headed out to run errands just as the snow kicked up again. Snow flurries. Ah that's nothing - sure I'll drive!

Running Errands



We ended the day with dinner at Swiss Chalet. What better way to celebrate being home for the holidays?!

Quarter Chicken White Meat with Fries. One for Mom and one for me!

Ahhh, Swiss Chalet. Now you need to stop at Harveys, Tim Hortons, Licks and the Mandarin. Now you can go back to San Diego.

Merry Christmas. Say 'hi' to mom.
