The New Year began with us still hunkered down as the Omicron variant continued to surge, having eschewed festive visits in favour of caution. The weather turned a little more wintery, though we were still green until late January, receiving our first permanent snowfall on January 23rd.
Outdoor walks became less frequent in the cold, though we did still find some sheltered spaces where we could perambulate free from prying winds, including down at the provincial park. We skipped the more scenic and shivery stretches along the shoreline, mind you.
We also started watching way too many van life videos on The Youtube, and started planning some temporary (and reversible) conversions to our own aged beast, whilst dreaming of longer term options and post-retirement road tripping. We also streamed a lot of shows on Crave, continuing the winter tradition of trying a new streaming service for a month or two whilst relatively housebound for winter, and then cancelling when we've had our fill.
The Walkerville Brewery "Beer Taxi" also made a deposit on our front porch, with an ample supply for the NFL playoffs, including one rather wild and arguably historic Divisional Weekend that featured all four games with thrilling last minute (or in one case, overtime) victories.
After many visits and much hard work by the four of us, the house in Tillsonburg was also finally ready to go on the market.
