Woke up this morn’ and thought I was in St.John’s.

Narh boy. Thick fog blanketed town early, nice break from this really beautiful weather run. Did not lat long though, back to sunny and in mid teens. Oh well, have to suffer through it.

Heard the Minister for Works, Services and Transport being interviewed on CBC this morning. Ann Budgell [who is spending some summer time in Labrador] asked the minister if there was any progress or chance of new construction this year on the Goose Bay to Cartwright section of the Trans Labrador Highway. “I have some good news to report” said the minister. He then went on to describe the good news, himself, three mayors and who knows who else are going to Ottawa for meetings with the feds.
If that’s good news then thank Yahweh he did not have bad news to report. Maybe it was just me; but it sounded like Ms Budgell was not all that pleased with the waffling and rhetoric that the Minister is want to go on with. Oh that’s right, he’s a politician.
