The weather forecast for today was wonderful, a little chilly with a high of -10 C (14 F) but sunny with NO SNOW!!!! It was a perfect day to drive to Burlington to celebrate Christmas with my mother and brother. I took a leg of lamb and some dessert with me and my mother provide the appetizers, potatoes and vegetables. The dinner and company were excellent.

The drive to Burlington was like driving in a Christmas card. The trees were ice and snow covered and were sparkling in the sun.

This photo was taken from my kitchen door. The "white hill" is the roof of the shop and the tree is the top of our neighbours pine tree.

As we were driving away from the house, Ed realized just how pretty our trees were. He backed up and took a photo.

The further south we drove the more ice there was on the trees. The more ice there was the more damage. On the route we drove, the Campbellville area had the most damage. I took some photos as we were driving.

We say several hydro crews out working and several road closed signs.
