for Vicki and Mis_n. This past week we had blizzard warnings on Wednesday and Thursday. A low pressure system was to bring in Arctic air and dump 10cm of snow overnight on Wednesday. The temperature did drop to the -20Cs and 15cm fell over the course of the warning. My co-worker, who is from Vancouver […]
Canadian Finals Rodeo Pics

(Doesn’t Ange look great in the cowgirl hat?!) Friday I went to the CFR with Angela and Adam. I don’t know why it took me so long to go but it’s pretty cool to see these cowboys ride. There was this team roping event that I’d never heard of where one rider ropes a calf […]

Last night we had freezing rain so this morning I spent a good 10 minutes scraping it off the car thereby being late for work. On the plus side, the temperature is nice and warm and today seems like a great day to be outside because it is hovering around 0C.

Edit: Beau and Jana’s haunted house was pretty impressive again this year. I came late so I missed some of the most impressive new improvements because the actors/deadbodies were […]
Good Weekend

Woke up this morning Saturday morning to a gorgeous view of a blanket of white snow covering the dry pond in the backyard. The temperature was still close to zero so walking around outside was very appealing to me. I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t seen snow in 2 years but there’s something […]
