Memories of Canada

We lived in Canada from 1994 to the beginning of 2002. I thought of Canada when I read this article in the Boston Globe. The article reports on finding a man's body in a snow bank on Revere Beach. This is the first time I've heard of such an occurence in the Boston area. However, in Canada this happened in Ottawa just about every other year we lived there. Usually, the body of an old person would be found near a bus stop in March when the snow banks would begin to melt.

Another event that I had never experienced in the States but occurred more than once in our years up north was the separation of a truck wheel from the truck body as the truck moved down the highway.
