As my freinds, family and faithful readers (all four of you) know, I am a huge fan of the outdoors. Doesn't matter to me if it is going for a run at 5 am on a cold winter's weekday morning, or lazed out on a dock on the skirts of Lake Mississauga with a bevvie closed at hand, or suffering throught the rain we alwasy seem to get on our annual camping trip to Arrowhead provincial park - I love it all. But admit I sometimes take it for granted.
Today I was given a reminder in humility with a sight of Niagara Falls. Breath taking. The kids were even wow'd enough to forget they were cold and hungry. Sun shining. Mist billowing. Rainbow shining brightly. Crystal covered branches. Winter scenes just don't get much better than this.
So today I am thankful to be so lucky to live a stone's throw away from one of the natural wonders of the world.
... and many more wonders to enjoy in this great country we live in ! Some even really close to home !
