These last three photos...I took them today, November 12th, on my cellphone after our first snow here in Montreal! I love the snow, and it looks like a winter wonderland! You can click on each image to see a larger view.
I will continue to share more of my snow photos in future posts. I hope you enjoy them. :)
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal! Enjoy! :)
This video is very touching, you may need a tissue. However, it is a true and beautiful story that I just had to share! Although this may bring tears to your eyes, the ending is a very happy one!
Now that the weather is cold, (at least in many parts of the world), we are in the cold and flu season.

I hope this will help you in the event of a cold.
