-- Snowstorm In The Maritimes --
|
My good friend Shirley Engstrom, who lives in New Brunswick, asked me to write something about a snowstorm in the maritime provinces. |
|
I couldn't say "no," now, could I? The mallets sliding around on the marimba provide the blinding, driven snow.... |
|
the cheery, insistent music played despite the marimba noise hopefully represents hardy Canadians going about their tasks. |
|
Some of those eight-foot in a day snowfalls in Labrador are unreal, if they aren't the worst in the world. |
|
(I've heard that it can snow 20 feet in one day in the High Sierras, where no one in their right mind goes in Winter,) |
|
so cheer up, Newfies, it could be worse, ha ha. Probably will, sometime. Really, you have my sympathy. |
