Nothing like a March blizzard to remind you where you are, a place that took PM Trudeau two days to get to. I almost got marooned at the office by the sudden storm the day he was supposed to arrive but managed to make it to my co-worker’s apartment where we made do on a variety of snacks, some frozen chicken and a bottle of wine. The next morning I washed my clothes so I would be clean for the PM’s visit.

Then a couple of days later I look out the porch and see these amazing clouds at sunset. They look like giant birds.

Let’s not forget about the ice down the street.

You will note the exhaust there which is from my vehicle which was warming up. The sunset colours were amazing and the power lines in front of the view are a fact of life.

Suddenly one morning I know spring is coming when the rocks are visible under the snow.

I see this huge polar bear skin being stretched. With the (ugly) coloured building in the background, it just speaks to how Iqaluit is today.

Happy April 1! Nunavut is 20 years old! I’m happy to watch the fireworks with an old friend by the ice.

I’m driving around and I see kids playing at recess. Great vista. Wonderful sun!

Saving the worst for the last. I note this flow of sewage in the neighbourhood I’m in. For me the worst is that I fall suddenly ill that same week with a water-related illness. I haven’t boiled my water enough or something. That caps off my month of photos! On to the end of April and beyond!
