The past few weeks, we’ve been teased and taunted. Ottawa winters can be a challenge as we balance the frigid wind, heavy snow and grey days with the moments of sunshine that grace us on any given day. But even on the darkest of days, we know, without a shadow of a doubt that when the sun peaks out between the clouds, spring is near.
Photo Challenge # 10 was taken along the Rideau Canal foot/bike path on Queen Elizabeth Drive near Patterson Creek. (And I actually think spring may have finally arrived!)

oh how gorgeous that must be in summer. Love the big trees. I wonder how old they are? xo
Our canal is so beautiful…. this pic was actually taken last weekend on a gorgeous spring day. I love that we can enjoy 4 seasons, but am quite pleased the snow is almost fully melted! 🙂
