Dec 21st as the first day of Spring, that's amazing! Very forward-thinking!

BTW, the mail strike is over and Tom's beautiful print arrived the same day by courier with a hefty brokerage fee. As expected, the union was crushed by the government as public pressure built to end their job action. This is an ongoing issue for essential workers being denied their right to collective bargaining. The picket lines and burn barrels remained in place until the moment the workers were forced to reentered their posts the following morning. The backlog will take weeks to clear up and there is some concern that Santa will not get all his letters from the children in time. But life carries on. Sounds like material for a song, doesn't it? Reminds me of "Horses" by The Rheostatics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_Kg0LWdRII

Oh hurrah, glad the print arrived - sorry about the brokerage fee though, it's always an adventure shipping to Canada!! Sounds like an impossible situation with the mail dilemma... sorry for the workers but glad for all the people depending on their checks coming in the mail. Tough times!
