/Almost completely OFF TOPIC
Years ago we lived in Buffalo NY and listened to Canadian Radio. They had a contest to create a new holiday for Canada. The idea was to establish a holiday in late January to relieve the boredom and hardships of Canada's cold winter days. I don't know if the holiday was ever actually established. But the name that I liked best was: "Chinook Day" It seemed completely appropriate because it generates images of good things to come. 1 (also chinook wind) a warm dry wind that blows down the east side of the Rocky Mountains at the end of winter and often melts all the snow on the ground. 2 (also chinook salmon) a large North Pacific salmon that returns from the ocean in Spring to bred in fresh water rivers and streams. /Now back to the current thread... |
