I’d rather look at roses than endure this cold wind!

Beautiful Graham Thomas English Rose.

Winter hit Toronto early this year and we’ve had snow cover for most of the last month! Thinking back to last winter, I think we’d only had one snow by this date and it melted shortly after it fell. I guess it’s about time we had a real winter around here.

Yesterday it did warm up a bit, but it rained and rained and rained some more. Then in the late afternoon strong winds arrived bringing with it very chilly weather. Right now it’s only a little below freezing, but thanks to the wind it feels extremely cold outside.

I’d much rather remember how lovely this rose looked in October when I took this photo when I have to take the puppy outside in the cold!
