The opening of Canada’s iconic Rideau Canal Skateway in Ottawa has been pushed back continually this year as the nation’s capital and much of Ontario are experiencing an unusually “mild” winter season.

The famous canal-turned-ice-rink has opened to the public every year since 1971. However, it remains unclear if the rink will be able to open at all this year given the weather conditions.

Went to drag story time today. Outdoors in Canada in February. Drag queens might be the toughest people in the world, hanging out in the cold in those outfits (including one in a day glo body suit, fishnets and stilettos walking on ice!)

A little extra cold this morning - a short-lived arctic cold snap.

But nothing breaks the cold in more effectively than an imminent winter festival. That'll get the ice thawing so that skating and ice sculptures are short-lived.

There was an album I recall called “Winterlude”, I think, that had low-key Christmas music-but I like the word-we are in “Winterlude”, before warmer weather returns to the Northern Eastern U.S.
