Just Wait ..........

.....10 minutes  if you don't like the weather
Is the standard joke about East Coast conditions in Canada , esp concerning Newfoundland.
To - day , it describes T.O. - little breaks of sun , little gusts of wind, big gusts of wind and SNOW going sideways.... leaves going sideways
' the frost is on the pumpkin ' or snow is

' The colder it is ,tiddly pom
The more it snows , tiddly pom
And no one know tiddly pom
How cold , tiddly pom 
My nose is growing '    paraphrased from A.A Milne



The backyard in fall 
This represents the view that we wait for
Fall in the ravine



They come out of the woodwork. 
Story line : Likeable aunt receives a  phone call informing  her that an agoraphbic sister is not feeling well . There is no one else here in T.O.
 Aunt travels from Edmonton , Alberta. On arrival discovers that the sister is hospitalized and bed ridden. The sister is suffering from osteoporosis and heart problems. The ultimate goal now is to get sis to a nursing home in Alberta , a mere 1500 miles away. There may be familial help there , well ,the family is nearer.....                 and dearer ????
Sis has a condo , doesn't leave the building and has no computer
Aunt is running around Richmond Hill using taxis and public transit
back and forth to the hospital.
Apparently , I've got a new career building 
They come out of the woodwork
