Since Christmas, we have stayed away from the downtown. Indeed, given COVID, most of the stores are closed. Instead, we have preferred to walk across the tundra, and rediscover ’old haunts’ from the time when we lived here. For example, we rediscovered the ski trails to the Road to Nowhere.
Heather has photographed the Winter landscape.
With the cold weather, we increased our time with books, crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles and various board games (new to us). The main challenge has been the BIG crossword, with 579 clues down and 594 clues across. Fortunately, perhaps, there seems to be an online Google industry for those addicted to the Christmas crossword. Although, for the purists, this may be considered ’cheating’.
We hope to be back in Nova Scotia next week, in 2022; COVID willing.
Meanwhile, enjoy the landscape.
