We had plans to head into Ottawa yesterday, but the likelihood of a fierce wind blowing newly fallen snow onto a rural highway dissuaded us. So, the trip and lunch are on the agenda today. But I must say that it looked pretty yesterday morning when I first looked out.

| The bright snow at the bottom was on the window ledge. I included it deliberately. |
But it was not fun to be out there, and we weren’t about to go for walk in the frigid gale.

| I keep wondering when the final shovelling session will occur, but it probably won't be for awhile yet. |
The day before, Jonathan had asked if I were available for a driving lesson. Sue requested that I take some photos of the event, so I sent a few back to her to composite for me. She sent many layouts, but I will limit myself to only including four of them here. Some versions are whimsical. Well, maybe they all are whimsical to some degree.
Before I leave, I present a selfie with the boy.
I'm glad you didn't go out. Driving in wind is really challenging and if the roads are bad, all the worse. Love the photo series and it looks like you all made it back in one piece!
ReplyDeleteHe is a handsome young man who looks like he is taking this seriously. Then we come to the last photo!
ReplyDeleteI always look forward to your photography creativity.
ReplyDeleteFun times! I remember teaching my grandson to drive, while his Dad was deployed in Iraq. There were some hilarious moments!
ReplyDeleteI like the daisy layout best. And the expression on the grandkid's face .. faces.
ReplyDeleteTeaching driving is one thing, but in the snow! That's a whole 'nother level.
ReplyDeleteThat first photo is gorgeous. Uuuhhhggg snow. Johnathan is a good looking boy. Good luck with the driving. Have a nice day today.
ReplyDeleteYou must give him courage just be there with him.
ReplyDeleteNo extra snow here this week but frigid temps again.
My husband was responsible for teaching the daughters how to drive in snow or on the freeway. My nerves couldn't handle it.
ReplyDeleteYou are brave.
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots especially of you moving snow (at your age! and back condition!) Cute composites, but the last takes the cake!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! Your last photo made me smile from ear to ear! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe little tree is beautiful! And the driving lesson shots are excellent!
ReplyDeleteThe last photo seems to be backwards.
ReplyDeleteA change of plans gifted you a quiet winter tableau
ReplyDeleteSo fun! I've only gone with my grands after they have gotten their licenses and have had their first vehicles.
ReplyDeleteLol. That boy is very high spirited, isn't he? Enough to keep grandpa on his toes!
ReplyDeleteWell done grandpa for taking Jonathan out. You certainly captured those great moments.
ReplyDeleteHe sure has grown!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a weird winter in some respects.
