SNOW, SNOW AND MORE SNOW

It has been a cold, snowy day here in Toronto today. It appears that the blizzard like conditions that are effecting the north-east coast of the USA are filtering on up into Ontario. The news here is full of adverse weather reports and transport delays.


Tammie had a round of business meetings today so I just chilled in the hotel and caught up with some sleep. One of the bonuses of staying at this particular chain of Hilton hotels is that they provided their guests with a breakfast and a pretty decent dinner.


I spent a fair amount of time on my book, revising and revising again. It is never-ending. It appears it is an author’s lot is to be never happy with what they write. Some passages of the book I have rewritten over and over again.


Tomorrow we move onto Niagara Falls and into a hotel that overlooks the Falls. How that works out will be interesting.


I know that some ex-military members read this blog from time to time and they will be interested to hear about what is the biggest story here in Canada at the moment.


A Canadian Air Force colonel who commands one of the largest bases in Canada has been charged with a double murder. He allegedly killed a Canadian Air Force corporal in her home and a few weeks later murdered another young woman. Before those events he had broken into the houses of two women and sexually assaulted them.


It has been reported that the colonel, a pilot had been earmarked to attain higher rank and one day become a general. He was apprehended when stopped at a local police checkpoint where the tyres of vehicles were being checked. A tyre treads was left in the snow at the scene of one of the crimes and was the only evidence the police had. The tyre tread of the colonel’s vehicle matched that of the suspects vehicle and when questioned the colonel became evasive so he was bought in for questioning.
I find it suprising that a person in such a position of authority could commit such a crime. You just never know.  http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2010/02/08/f-williams-biography.html
