Schizophrenic weather

What a difference a day makes!!   Jack Knox from the Times Colonist today (Feb. 24th) says: "Went to bed in Victoria on Tuesday night and woke up in Whitehorse."  Greater Victoria itself had 5 centimetres of snow breaking the 1942 February record, but this was far less than other parts of the area.  I wish I had made it to Swan Lake where 20 centimetres settled on the ground.  Today, Wednesday, much of the snow that blanketed the ground and trees has gone away primarily due to high winds, shovelling and foot traffic.  It is like being back in Ontario. 










 I was out at Beacon Hill Park on Tuesday afternoon taking pictures and out again on Wednesday afternoon.   Yes, indeed, what a difference a day makes as the following contrasting images of the same subjects show.
