One last look at the shipping container-inspired office building being built in London, Ontario. An architect told me that this really is quite a feat. Getting a building of such a small size by the zoning inspectors must have been difficult. Office buildings must meet a lot of guidelines, such as ones governing access and emergency exits. Clearly, this structure has managed to meet all appropriate regulations. The architect was amazed.
Snow in mid April is not uncommon but it is still unexpected. This morning, Twitter was filled with tweets from folk complaining about their snow tires or should I say their unmounted and stored for the warm weather snow tires. Oops!
Oh well, the mercury may climb to 10-degrees centigrade or 50-degrees Fahrenheit tomorrow. The snow will soon be no more than a memory.
Although it is not the usual weather for Easter Monday, snow mixed with rain is forecast for Easter Monday, arriving in the late after noon and continuing into Tuesday morning. Some accumulation is expected. Many motorists, caught without their snow tires mounted on their cars, are praying for the return of warm, sunny weather as soon as possible.
Today, Sunday, is Easter. It is a day for families to come together and celebrate the future and the past. Though, last year it was a day for hunkering down in out homes that had become shelters from the pandemic. There were very few large family gathering.
But today was different. It was a bit more like Easters of days gone by with children and grandchildren and my wife's grandmother's china. But, all was not yet back to Easter as usual. One daughter and one granddaughter were missing. Why? Although both are fully vaccinated, they were home recovering from COVID.
