Yes Shane that was absolutely incredible. My back ached for weeks. The snowblower was pretty much useless.

That year it took until May 13 for the snow to melt. I remember since my birthday is the 11th and my dad's is the 13th.

Let's hope there is no repeat of that monster.

 

I can only imagine that your back ached for weeks!! Those are some pretty crazy pictures of the TransCanada coming into Halifax eh!

 

No kidding. There weren't many machines they had that would actually cut through.

 

Yes not so fond memories. You made me shiver when I read your post

Getting home. Something like that yes.

 

I get shivers just looking at those pics too.....yikes .... I've not seen anything like that since I lived in the Ottawa Valley in the 50's and 60's.... man did it snow there.

(......and I don't want to see it again...... )

Canuck, where are you...

 

..I remember pics like those from my uncle...
when he worked for IOC in Labrador City.

 

Hey Deane, I remeber you telling me that you and your neighbours actually skiied from one rooftop to another on your street......is that true? By the looks of those pictures, I can see how that was possible!
