That is a good web site. I'll have to see if we have something similar. Sackville looked pretty weird on that link.

I just read that story in the paper of the tobogganer in Hampton. No name is mentioned but your folks might know him.
We have a tiny mist going but I don't trust it's over yet.

Also, there was next to no traffic so that made it easier. That 8 year old boy in Hampton that died was unbelievably tragic. I don't know them myself, however my sister knows the parents. Since she works for the RCMP, she got the details of what happened. The father was in the inner-tube along with his son........so it's hard to imagine what he is going through right now. Truly a sad story.

^ Yep we sure are Wayne. We got over 20cms yesterday and are expected to get another 15-25 cms tonight and tomorrow. It's been a long long time since we've had a winter like this.

You guys hang in with what seems to a bit colder weather.

I snowblowed the drive this morning and we got a good 25cms of snow and it's still snowing. I got stuck for almost an hour this morning too which really sucked. Wayne, is there any way I can fit in your suitcase and go to Mexico with you?
