    Wild guess - Olympic Stadium in Montreal, taken from the tower that held the old removable roof up?

    Nope, but you're pretty close for a first guess.

    Okay - the Rogers Centre (Skydome) from the CN Tower?

    Off topic - are you all dug out yet?

    Looks like I missed the response - but yes, that is correct.

    More specifically, that's looking straight down at the Skydome from the glass bottomed floor portion of the CN Tower.


    And yes, I am dug out. We got about 20 inches, but the wind was the thing that really made it a nasty storm. I left the Garage Door open, and that was enough to have the Front Windshield (facing the back wall) of my car covered in several inches of snow!

    And you left the door open because, you were concerned that if it was closed, you couldn't open it again? Or?

    That does sound a bit miserable. I've seen photos of some friend's house in northern North Dakota -- He actually parked his snowmobile on his house's roof (for a photo) drove up there with no problems. Just like Santa's sleigh... Digging out his garage so he could get his truck out ... was not as fun...

    I had to put my chains on to get my truck out of my driveway and down the alley last week - the last time I put chains on a vehicle was about 40 years ago. I'm still parked out in the street. Joplin snow removal is quite an oxymoron.
