What a beautiful day in the neighbourhood...


I had to run a couple of errands this morning and I can't get over how beautiful a day it is outside. The snow hasn't melted and the sun is shining brighter than ever, it looks like a postcard.
Typically winter days tend to be the clearest, I think it has something to to with smog or ozone layer or something. Summer mornings aren't quite as crisp and clear as winter ones. One of the things I miss about running, while I was training for my marathon, was seeing the sunrise. I used to leave the house around 6 or 6:30 am and was able to watch the sun rise over the lake. I actually don't live too far from Lake Ontario and my route took me along a path along the waterfront.

When I was younger I was into photography, these used to be my favourite days to take pictures, always got the best results. I was so impressed with this morning that I headed down to the bottom of my street to the little parkette and snapped this pic. Should have gone into the house and taken a better camera. This one's from my cellphone. Hardly publishing quality but it will do in a pinch.
