Snowy postcard from Columbia neighbors in Ontario



2018-04-01 - Collingwood, Ontario - Photo by Jukka Tuuah.
We're reminded by neighbors Sybille and Jukka Tuuah from Canada, that we don't really get that much cold weather here. The weather is what attracted them to Kentucky and Tennessee, looking for warmer climates for their horses. Sybille shared this picture of winter in their northern home. She is pictured at right in the Blue Mountain ski resort area of Collingwood, Ontario. She said it doesn’t compare to the majesty of the Appalachian or Smokey Mountains but the Colorado style resort and the Georgian Bay provide a nice playground for visitors and locals alike. She and Jukka plan to be in their Columbia home again soon. - LW

She taught her Sunday school class that faith in God teaches us humility, grace, hope and love are the pillars of our spiritual life. Her seventh and eighth grade science students found out about her love of butterflies and over the years gave her pins to represent them as gifts. At her funeral, there were enough of them in the collection that every person left with a butterfly pin.
