    YAY, Vancouver! I'm so glad that you in the southern U.S. will be following the Olympics! I was afraid 0nly we Canadians knew about it as I haven't heard much talk about it anywhere else!

    Yes, the logo in snow is very unique. It definitely blows my mind how they are able to sculpt it as such.

    Hi Susan
    I love your Olympics post! Especially because I am in Canada and we are very proud to have the Olympics here and also because my brother lives in Vanvouver. I wish I could be there for the Olympics.
    Lovely pictures you've shared.
    I hope you are doing well. I haven't been to visit for a while. I have catching up to do.
    Please do stop by my blog as well.
    *hugs*

    Hi Susan,
    I had forgotten the Olympics were starting so soon. Guess you can tell I'm not a big fan of the sporting world! Ah well, the pictures you shared make me want to hop in a plane and spend some time in Vancouver, sports or not!
    Have a great week.

    We have enough snow to do that here...but I dare say the time to do that...would have this Muse frozen solid!
