DISTANT RELATIVES.....

 Everybody has them. Relatives. Distant ones.  They come without warning. They bring their dog.
                  They insist upon standing outside in the snow..........B.C. snow is so elusive. Such wonderful cool air, they say.
                        Better for the complexion , so they say.
                         They won't wear their coats outside...............cause they want to experience the essence of snow. Be at one with the snowflakes.
       Their eyes grow huge at the sight of snowflakes. They insist upon bananas and carrots, for noses.
          Their dog is named "Oreo". Aptly chosen cause his eyes look like oreos. And they are....
 Finally, they put on hats and scarves. For the photo, they insist.
      Their dog barks a lot. He piddles on the snow.
                Finally they want a "before and after" shot..................eyes big, in this brand new world.
           Trees laden with snow. Looks like Christmas. They put on their hats and scarves for a nice family photo. To show their cousins back home.So nice to see the distant relatives enjoy themselves.......till the rain comes and they'll want rain coats...
