Around The World---The Great White North by bkbinthecity

Around The World---The Great White North

So continuing with my photos from places we have been to in Canada. This was taken in 1993 in Fort Simpson in the Northwest Territories. We had gone up with our college class to visit and help with a number of churches. We would go and help with whatever they needed at the time.
This was taken in the month of January so there was a whole lot of snow and yes the temperatures were extremely cold
We were supposed to get snow today, but it snowed slush. Very disappointing! Hope spring is here soon!
