We’re writing this blog during the middle two weeks of January. So where’s the snow? In a northern country like Canada, this would normally be a time of deep white landscapes throughout most of the land. Our elders speak of childhood memories, recalling winter activities of sledding, ice skating, trudging through deep banks to school. Even we recall the deep snow of our youth, playing hockey on out-door rinks, freezing our toes off in poorly fitting skates. That is the genesis of our song January, coming out of our own Canadian experience when those middle two weeks really were the coldest ones. Now we’re dealing with climate change, global warming, those annoying Nino effects, the whole inconvenient truth right in our face. We just wanna play in the snow.
