I didn't do too much today. I woke up late, played guitar and listened to some music for while - I'm continuing to explore country a little, and I've actually created a playlist of some songs I really like. I still can't belive it.
I met Mom for lunch at about noon. We went to a cool restaurant called "Our Place" right in downtown Yellowknife. They make a fantastic cream of mushroom soup and a pretty good ceaser salad.
I noticed while I was walking to and from lunch that things are really melting here. It only got up to about 10 degrees, but there was a steady stream of water running down both sides of our little street, and the puddle behind the appartment was HUGE. There were about 4 inches of water... and there's no way around it. I had to walk through it a couple of time. It's weird though, because it always recedes during the night, and then by lunch time it's filled right up again. It's nice though, because it means the snow is leaving, and warmer weather is coming right away. It's really amazing how much it's warmed up here just since I arrived. It hasn't been anywhere near the -20 it was when I landed that first evening! And I'm very happy about that...

10 is about a hundred times better than -20! I can't imagine you in weather that cold lol.
I wear many layers. Even when we went up to watch the sunset a couple of days ago, it was fairly warm, but I wore my winter coat, neck warmer, hat, gloves, a sweater, and another shirt... and I wouldn't say I was toasty warm!
Hahaha, I swear you're cold-blooded Liam!
This is a great site, Liam. Your pics are beautiful and it's fun to read what you've been up to! Keep it going, 'cause we'll be checking here often!
Love Aunty Mary
