MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

Boys of summer
your brown skin shining in the sun
you know your walking real slow
smiling at everyone
I can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the boys of summer have gone.
--- Don Henley "Boys of summer"

Niagara Falls
The city is dominated by the Niagara Falls, a world famous set of two large waterfalls on the Niagara River and benefits from the fact that both falls, the American and Horseshoe, can be best seen from the Canadian side of the river, thus presenting the city one of the major tourist attractions of the world. The natural spectacle brings in millions of tourists yearly. The city permitted the development of a tourist area along the falls and the gorge. This area which stretches along the Niagara Parkway and tourist promenade is particularly concentrated at the brink of the falls and, apart from the natural attractions along the river, includes huge parking lots, souvenir shops, observation towers, high-rise hotels, casinos and theaters, mostly with colourful neon billboards and advertisements. Further to the north or south there are golf courses alongside historic sites from the War of 1812. (Source: wikipedia.org)
This is how Niagara Falls looks from the roof level.

Tartu town hall square
I just imagine that I am in Estonia.
Though there is no snow either.
The central Tartu Town Hall Square is surrounded by buildings built in the classical style. Since 1998 the square is decorated by the “Kissing Students” fountain. Throughout centuries the centre of town activity has been Town Hall Square, the history of which goes back to ancient times. At that time the market place was the square lying between the fortress on Toome Hill and the harbour on the banks of the Emajõgi River. This tradition persisted for centuries. During the midieval period the Town Hall was built here. The present building is the third one in the same place.
Compared with the long history of Tartu, the buildings are relatively young: it is rare to find buildings originating from earlier than the last quarter of the 18th century. This is due to the many wars and fires which have passed over the town. During the Great Fire of 1775, nearly the entire town centre burned to the ground. Just after that fire the town began to take on the appearance that it displays today, and the Town Hall building originates from that time. (Source Visit Tartu)

Amazing weather
Roughly two months ago.
The best forecast I have ever seen.
That is where my last tan is from.

Cheltenham Badlands
The formation was exposed by poor farming practices in the 1930s that led to soil erosion and exposed the underlying shale. The formation is mostly red in colour due to iron oxide deposits with some faint green streaks due to ground water percolation changing the red iron oxide into green iron oxide.
