Cleaning up after the l o n g winter ...

The spring rains are finally here and it's time to clean up after a long, snowy winter.  The weather here provides a constant source of interest and curiosity as some things are so different.  During the winter, I loved the 'Be an Angel, Shovel Your Neighbour's Walk' signs around the city (I never managed to get a picture though) and at the moment, these signs are making me smile (yes, I am easily amused) ...


Thanks to the gravel that is spread across the streets on snowy days in winter time, the streets are pretty yucky come spring time.  So, the council come around and clean each street once the snow is gone.  As you can see, our street was cleaned on Tuesday and looks super lovely now. Especially with the spring blossoms and green grass finally making an appearance!
