WINTERLUDE in Ottawa!!!

This past weekend marked the start of WINTERLUDE 2007 for the City of Ottawa!!! With our wacky weather of the last few months we weren't sure that winterlude would be quite the same if there wasn't going to be snow, ice or the usual chilly February temperatures...

HOWEVER, mother nature once again pulled through for us!!! We got our cold temperature, which made snow cover the ground and ice cover the canal...AWESOME!!!

On Friday night Brad and I, along with about 10,000 other folk, went to the Rideau Canal Skateway (American Express snow bowl) to watch the opening Ceremonies for the Winterlude festivities...Randy Bachman was the main feature for the concert on Friday night.

After the concert we took a short stroll through Confederation park to take a look at the ice sculpture artists (I guess that is what they are called?!?!?) hard at work on their projects for the competitions coming up.

The night was perfect as it was only about -5 degrees, and it was snowing (the big fluffy snowflakes that I totally love)!!!

Hi Stacy!

It sure sounds like you and Brad have so much fun together. I am so happy that he takes such good care of you. Mommy says you deserve only the best and it looks like you have found it!

Lots of love,
