Anyone who didn’t make it outside over the weekend missed out on some beautiful weather. It was warm, there was a light breeze and you could really sense that the change in seasons has begun.
I stepped outside Sunday afternoon to the sound of water trickling down the storm drains in front of my little piece of suburbia. The snow on the front lawn had almost disappeared overnight and it seemed the entire neighbourhood was out enjoying the weather.
I found myself going for a long walk in Jackson Park, where the ground was still blanketed in a white layer of cold. A subtle reminder that winter hasn’t quite loosened its icy grip on us.
