Winniter Officially Started...
Winnipeg (pronounced[help] /ˈwɪ.nɪ.pɛg or ˈwɪ.nə.pɛg/) is the largest city and capital of the Canadian province of Manitoba. Located at the eastern edge of the prairie region of Western Canada, Winnipeg plays a prominent role in transportation, finance, manufacturing, agriculture and education. Because all rail and highway traffic between eastern and western Canada must travel through or near the city, it is often called the "Gateway to the West".
The city is located near the geographic centre of North America, on a flood plain at the confluence of the Red and Assiniboine rivers, a point now commonly known as The Forks.
Winnipeg lies in close proximity to hundreds of lakes, including Lake Winnipeg, Canada's fifth largest lake and the world's eleventh largest, as well as Lake Manitoba and the Lake of the Woods.
The city is a cultural centre and is the home of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. It boasts historic architecture, scenic waterways, numerous parks including Assiniboine Park, and distinctive neighbourhoods.

Beautiful Fall in Winnipeg
The word fall is now mostly a North American English word for the season. It traces its origins to old Germanic languages. The exact derivation is unclear, the Old English fiæll or feallan and the Old Norse fall all being possible candidates. However, these words all have the meaning "to fall from a height" and are clearly derived either from a common root or from each other. The term only came to denote the season in the 16th century, a contraction of Middle English expressions like "fall of the leaf" and "fall of the year".

I just want you to know who I am
| GooGoo Dolls - Cit... |
And I’d give up forever to tutch you,
Cause I know that you feel me somehow.
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be,
And I dont wanna go home right now.
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breath is your life
Well sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t whant to miss you tonight.
And I don’t whant the world to see me,
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s ment to be broken
I just whant you to know who I am.
And you can’t fight the tears that aint coming
All the moments of truth in your lies.
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you’re alive.
And I don’t whant the world to see me,
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s ment to be broken
I just whant you to know who I am.
And I don’t whant the world to see me,
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s ment to be broken
I just whant you to know who I am.
I just whant you to know who I am

Apples! yes really on a tree!!
Gala apples are small and are usually red with a portion being greenish or yellow-green, vertically striped. Gala apples are fairly resistant to bruising and are sweet, grainy, with a mild flavour and a thinner skin than most apples. They are also considered to be a very soft eating apple due to their lack of crispiness, well-suited for denture wearers.
