One afternoon along the riverside

It is the first time we went out for a trip along the riverside since it came into winter. One the south side of the river, there is some fine ice layer. At a wider turn, the current was running even harder than it was in the summer. There were quite a few trails on the snow. Someone had been here.

Only a few minutes, we saw a tall old man marching by, a father with a boy at 5 or 6, and an old man sitting on a bench! Wait a minute, who is the lady on the picture? I don't know. She lives not far away from the riverside with her husband. Her R accent is very very strong. She never drivers in all her life. This afternoon, she will go to the west side of the Montreal island for string jump in a tennis court. She would jump 40 times before she takes the first stop. There is a pair of snowshoes. "C'est tres bon," elle dit.

After we greeted each other, took several pictures, she walked away steadily and speedily. In two more picture-taking time, she was out of our view. She is 82 this year. I want to show my mother and my grandma her picture and her words.
