I like my winter the way some people like their beer: cold, crisp, and dry. Don't ask me how beer can be dry; apparently it has to do with the finish. I like that Vancouver's winter is starting out that way. Consider that it could be a lot worse, given the temperature range we're "enjoying" on either side of 0° C. Add a bit of precipitation, and we could have ice rain overnight, wake up to black ice in the morning, and be gritting our teeth through days of biting, penetrating, ice-cold, rain. As it is now, it's just a good excuse to wear a scarf, toque, and mittens, and -- bonus! We actually look Canadian for a change. And the roads aren't hazardous, only the drivers -- as usual.
I just wonder how long nature can keep this up for. Click the images to enlarge them.
