Snowshoeing in Andrew Haydon Park and Stillwater creek

OK, just a quick trip back to the present to show you some photos from today.  I went out snowshoeing in the late afternoon today along the creek behind our house, into Andrew Haydon Park and along the Ottawa River.  It was cold out (-18) but snowshoeing is such good exercise that I was warm the whole time.
