Blog Guelph: Bright (for now)


Bright, originally uploaded by photocbear.

Well call me a big baby, or even dull for that matter, because all I have for you is another weather report with accompanying visual materials.

Is it mild and wet or cold and windy as hell? Depends on the hour you ask this weather girl...seems we're in for another round of Mother Nature's schizophrenic ferocity today.

As we used to say on the farm, "weather's comin', weather's comin..."
(Truth be told, I never grew up on a farm, and weather, in some shape or form, is always a comin')

So beginning with Photocbear, witness the beauty of the sky as it appears right now on this , the last day of January - all sunny and lovely - then peruse 4 more pics to see what's in store...and what to do when it's all over with.

Hang tough,

-Downtown Lynn-

P.S. OH, and big congratulations to our dear Sue Richards for hosting this spectacular bit of Blog-liness more than 2000 times! Gimme an S - U - E! Yay Sue!

GuelphGothic, originally uploaded by guelphguy.

Drum roll please.

This post - the one you're staring at right now - is Blog Guelph's 2,000 since our inception! (Sue and Downtown Lynn swagger and wipe sweat from brow.)

But due even more applause - cause posting is easy when dealing with the talent of Guelph photographers - are the image takers that capture our lovely city in so many cool ways. So ta da to each of you. I hope that Blog Guelph is serving you well.

Only four pics to click today dearest viewers. But don't let that stop you from wading into our deep archives - located in the right hand side bar.

Blog Guelph: Wind Warning


IMG_6310, originally uploaded by vaneramos.

Here's the skinny on today's outrageous weather.

Even though it's only minus 11 C, it feels like minus 22 C.

Why is that you might wonder?

Well....Guelph is sporting a 43km/h south westerly with gusts of up to 59km/h.

Hang onto your hats boys and girls. We really do have a wind warning in effect.

Blog Guelph: Downward Racing Dog


Snow Dog, originally uploaded by peterkelly.

Today is dedicated to dogs. Fun loving, happy to be here, take what comes, spirit lifting dogs.

Besides that - the sun is shining on our town. It rose at 7:43 am and will sink out of sight at 5:18 pm giving us a whopping 9 hours and 35 minutes of golden shine goodness. Soak it up while you can dear Guelphites. The long range forecast is not so sunny.

Thanks for stopping by everyone. Downtown Lynn and I are very pleased you keep visiting the 'Blog about Guelph'.

Please note:
1. Downtown Lynn is off on official Guelph business today. She'll be back.

Blog Guelph: Turn Right For Yellow


This Way Sun..., originally uploaded by photocbear.

Okay.

Yesterday Downtown Lynn reported on Blue Monday - apparently the most depressing day of the year. Sadly dear readers, the grimness doesn't end there. I've since learned that this entire week has been painted with the same bleak brush.

Well screw that I say.

Today we're going to turn this hum and bug ship away from the blues and into a sea of yellow fun, sun, flowers, song and love love love.

Fasten your seat belts and let mellow yellow take you for a spin down the yellow brick road in a big yellow taxi.
