I kept having to make a largish snowball for Sam to carry around. It would slip further and further down out of his grip until it would fall and break at his feet. Then he'd yell "snow... BALL!" repeatedly and follow me around until I'd make him another one, at which time the process began all over again.

This is the first "real" snow we've had since 1996. And the first November snow since the mid-80s. And... man. Talk about your perfect storms. It came down hard enough to close schools and whatnot... and then the sun came out.
Mike and Echo and I had a great walk and romp around the neighbourhood; took lots of pictures; saw lots of kids out sliding and... here's the best part:
After Mike headed home to do some shovelling, I kept walking and shooting by myself. I saw another woman with a camera... and we started chatting right away. Turns out she's a fellow Flickr-er!!! Calypso Orchid. My first time meeting a Victoria Flickr-er. What a great day!!!
