    I guess I was lucky to be in Calgary (Lake Louise and Baniff) years ago in September, and the weather was awesome! I guess the planet was still in good shape back then. As much as I LOVE your neck of the woods, sorry, I'll stay here and take our crazy 4 seasons. At least I know they'll be no snow past April. (crosses fingers)



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Ya hoo!!! Forecast is changed, for the better. Sort of. The SNOW factor is gone, but it's still going to rain and be cold for the weekend. It's very dark and cloudy this morning. Must be good for the elk, there was 15 in the yard this morning.

    No kidding. If there was any fire wood left after the kids fire pit party I'd be sitting here with a rip roaring fire. It's only 5 degrees out. The mist is blowing outside like snow. This will chill you to the bone.

    Could you send it back up here where it belongs, please? We have extreme fire hazard right now. The Alaska Highway is closed due to a massive fire near the BC/Yukon border, which means most supplies, like groceries ect, can't get here. Several villages have been evacuated. It's unlikely I'll have to, but I've already contacted the people involved in our personal emergency plan, just in case I need a safe place for 24 dogs in a hurry!

    Yikes!!! You can have it back for sure! It is cold, wet and miserable here. It's been quite dry so we can use the moisture, but sounds like you need it more. We're on 5 unfenced acres, but you and the brood are welcome here if you've got to get out.

    A couple of snow pictures to make you shiver. One shows Sasha outside in snow up to her tummy, note the poor shrubs covered in heavy snow. The other shows the amount of snow piled up on the deck railing.

    We had no power from 5 am to 8 am this morning. Hoping it stays on now.

    That is so crazy, I'm so used to 4 seasons, I'm not sure what you would have up North. Does it stay cold/snowy most months of the year? I wouldn't be able to live there. Cold is not my thing.
