When there is only one tree in the neighbourhood



We are having gorgeous, sunny, summery weather this long Easter weekend. M was saying we had no snow in all of March which is unusual. People are taking their snow tires off a month earlier than usual, not to mention thinking of barbecue season. The grocery stores were crowded yesterday because they are closed today and Sunday. I heard Costco (in the States anyway) sells a spiral ham in red foil that is already cooked, so you just warm it and pour the accompanying sauce on it. Well, that's the American way for you.

I went for a walk down Main Street in the afternoon and it was bustling, the sidewalk cafes were overflowing with people enjoying the good weather. The ice cream/chocolate store was doing brisk business.

Hey Christine

I just had one of my customers send me that picture to me also on Thursday. It says Another Problem Caused By Deforestation :o)
Being what I do for a living I loved it!
Happy Good Friday!
