You've got my sympathy. My daughter has a friend who
moved to Hamilton (Ancaster, in fact) last year, and
of course, they're *best* friends and just have to see
each other every couple of weeks. So I've been
schlepping back and forth between Toronto and Hamilton
(or the other girl's parents coming the other way) on
a regular basis. That area around Oakville/Burlington
has just got to go! (and she always wants to listen
to that freakin' CISS-FM station on the way).
Right now, it's snowing here, but not that much, and
gently at that, but it's blowing a lot. I understand
just west of here (Oakville) is going to get really
dumped on. We don't usually get much snow 'til New
Year's Day or thereabouts, so it's not looking good,
is it!
And we had that subway fire so getting home is going
to be fun... heehee!
