Vieux Terrebonne Part 2
Let’s pick up right where we left off last week exploring some of the old buildings and lovely doors in Vieux Terrebonne covered in snow:
And the best news of all is that in about a month or so it will all start melting 😀
As always, thanks so much for dropping by 🙂

Wow, what impressive doors, they are splendid, even knee deep in snow! The house and doors with the orange surround really stands out! I love it….but I do NOT envy you your climate, right now in Cyprus it’s 14c, I’m cold and have the CHeating on, I would not survive Canadian weather, I’m such a wimp now!

Thanks Vicky. The cold weather’s something you learn to get used to. As long as you dress appropriately, even -25c can be comfortable as long as there’s no wind of course 😉

I love white walls in white snow, and I wish I could wear and look good in white – unfortunately not!
Am not predicting anything, because we had snow on April 1st last year. Another favorite is the last one – somehow snow softens the bare or old. Great collection, Norm!

My heart belonged to the first one…until I got to 933. That’s my favorite and I’m sticking to it. But they’re all lovely and I especially like the shots where it’s snowing, too. We have quite a bit here, but it started melting yesterday and will continue to do so today. As for the rest of winter, who knows? 🙂

Every week, I fall in love with the first door you show us, Norm and almost every week, something comes along and steals the top spot. This week is the exception. I really like that first door, and even though you have a bunch of good ones, that’s my favorite. 1801 and 933 are close seconds.
I think the snow helps, in that it highlights the strength and purpose of these doors. They stand strong between us and whatever nature throws at them. Great photos!

What a lovely collection of grand homes! … and not one of them appears to have a driveway tent for the snow that is so common throughout Quebec.
I thought I loved 1801, until I saw 933.
