Man as far as Canada goes, you guys (Atlantic Canada) really like to suffer. I remember a New Year's tour I did out to NL, my first and only time out there, and all I could think was how much the moon must look like NL. St. John's held the nicest people I've met to date in Canada. Be safe. |

Majority of the island has no power. Cold and windy. Storm only half done, and the house is chilled. Overall doing good. |

Power is back for us. I have the doors cleared around the house. The driveway hasn't been touched, as I have a 5 foot windrow, and the neighbours across the road have 6 foot windrow. In between it is level with snow. Thanks for the thoughts. I would much rather be in Cuba with kimmy and Anav |

I only wish I lived nearby so I could do the neighbourly thing and assist you removing the snow from your driveway and sidewalk... When you get a second maybe you could snap some photos of all the snow.... Hang in there Buddy, we all know how tough and resilient Newfies are... |
