Winter to Spring










T









The Fairford River and my back yard!


The snow is melting and we have flooding! Red River, Assiniboine. Souris and even our Fairford River are all overflowing. Ice Jams are causing water to back up and flood property. Winnipeg has opened the flood gates to allow water into Duff's Ditch. There has been so much snow and rain on the American side and the Red River takes all this water north to Canada. I hope we don't have another Flood of the Century that was in 1997, and this is another century.


When one looks at all the tragedies in the world today, with the loss of so many lives, we can cope with this flooding. So sandbagging, building dykes, weather forecasting and we are having a Federal Election. Ho Hum!

The World Curling Bonspiel just finished and Canada won. They beat Scotland!


I saw a robin today!


Cheers
