In the Valley2.

So the day is looking good for getting to St.John’s. Fran been worried some time that weather would play some role in preventing her getting to here nursing class 40th reunion, at this point the fears seem to be unfounded, but then it is NL.

Yesterday was a busy one, visiting Fran’s mom, my second chiro visit to get some kinks out. Banking and getting Fran’s picture ID renewed, then a visit to the CBC studio for Fran to get some ideas as to what will be required for the new CKOK studio that hopefully will begin construction this month.
Temperature got up to about 24, as everywhere the weather, ice conditions, tourists are the top of the casual conversation.
Did get a fairly good indication that Wally Andersen will not be running for re election in the district of Torngat Mountains come later in the year, but then it is NL.

The picture ID is an on going problem for many on the coast. People still ask me to take their picture on the miss conception that all it takes is for you to have a picture of yourself. I have gone to great pains over many years to explain what is required for people to get an “official picture ID”.
It still baffles me why the people who are elected along with the high paid officials of Nunatsiavut have not sorted this issue out yet, or supply some one to explain to and help the people navigate the process, see July 6 news brief.

Running into people from the coast all the time, one of the hydro plant monitors from home is in the room below us, he is here with a bunch of other monitor/operators for some sort of meeting.

So it’s out to the airport for mid day madness, I have not been out of Labrador since all the new security has been implemented, a total new experience awaits.
