Oh no! I'm not ready yet!

A few days ago while sitting at my desk I heard it. But then thought it can’t be… not yet. I’m not ready for that. Not now! It’s still too early!

Just now I took the pooch out and heard it again… I looked up and there it was, a flight of geese heading South.

It was beautiful, and like every true beautiful thing, it brought tears to my eyes… for 2 main reasons: its beauty and because I really don’t want winter to come just yet. I'm enjoying fall at the moment... I know it's not all about me, but winter… I’m not ready… *sigh*

Ugh. I'm not ready for winter yet either - But at least it's still fall. Fall is so beautiful! Do you get the season change any sooner a way up north there?

pg: I don't know if it is sooner here, but the leaves have started to turn.

I just think it is too friggin' soon, that's all!

In 3 months it will be Christmas!!! :-0

Have you ever seen the movie "Le Peuple Migrateur"?

If you haven't, it' a great documentary about migrating geese around the world, and they even show our Canadian ones.

They are beautiful creatures that endure a challenging voyage every spring/fall...
