A very 'Canadian' morning

The last few hours have reminded me how much I love living in Canada.

I woke up around 8:30 a.m. with a bit of a hangover, but I knew I had to shake it off and start shovelling snow. We had a small party at our house last night and it snowed throughout the night, so I knew I'd be busy in the morning. I geared up, put my headphones on and began clearing the driveway in the bright morning sunshine.

While shovelling, I noticed a woman down the street was struggling to drive her car out of the snow. I ran over, joined a few other neighbours and we helped push her car out.

After shovelling, I jumped into my vehicle and drove to Tim Hortons to grab a Saturday morning coffee.

Driving home, I noticed about 30 cars at my local park, with kids running with sleds and crazy carpets toward the park's giant hill.

Some people complain about the cold...

But I think I'm lucky to live here :)
