April 16: Luxury is sometimes necessary


A wisp of white blows by my window. Indeed, light snow is falling steadily--already about 6 inches blankets my car. Splurging for the fancy sport-ute no longer seems a luxury. I switch on the 4WD and immediately feel the extra traction.


I had originally plan to stop by Kakabeka Falls. Spring melts bring torrents over what is dubbed the Niagara of the North. With the slippery road conditions, I drive slowly, aiming for the shortest distance home.


I pick up some very decent sushi from Sushi Bowl’s new location in Port Arthur. The food is as good as I remember. The prices, however, have gone northward--justly so, as the prices were too low to be sustainable. I’ll happily pay the extra few dollars to ensure the longevity of this spot. I share a lovely lunch with Louise and Jason. I check out all the quilted goods that wheelchair bound Louise has prepared for her upcoming quilt fair.
