As we listened to the wind blast through the trees this morning we began suspecting that Braddock Bay was not happening... stepping outside to brush the snow off the car confirmed that, since in the wind it was bloody freakin' cold! So instead we went to the Crescent Beach Inn for brunch (we had a gift certificate we needed to use before it expired) and enjoyed the incredible holiday display in the dining room (Ann was bummed I didn't bring my camera) and the sight of the wild waves on Lake Ontario from inside a nice warm building.
Later in the afternoon I did spend a while watching the birds at the feeder that I put up out front last winter (actually, the feeder that replaced the one I put up, since that one was chewed apart by the squirrels...) Only sparrows and juncos, but fun to watch all the same.
We'll have to visit Braddock Bay another time, when the weather's a bit more hospitable...
