Mini storm.

The first decent storm of the season has been and almost gone. Winds up to 82 K last night, not a lot of snow but it looks like a lot in places where the wind deposited it, around our house there are lots of little places to deposit it.

As usual this sort of storm inconveniences people bringing things up from the dock, luck had it that the Aston was in on Wednesday.
Chaos as usual down at the dock and lay down area. Only one fork lift was in operation, it has those tiny hard wheels that don’t go too good in snow and slush. Of course there were no chains to put on the wheels; several pallets of drinks were tumbled onto the ground as the little machine that tries slipped and skidded all over the place. Some things never change and while we have to deal with the Woodward group they never will.

so there will be a sort of winter after all!
i have to say i enjoy reading your pages...informative,and yet all too real in a sad way,that after all Labrador has given to the country,the People of Labrador must put up with such third world reality.

i hope the winter is not too rough on you guys...

Third world reality indeed.

At least third world despotic leaders are up front about their miss deeds. Up here the ordinary Jane and Joe Blow suffer under so called democracy that is cloaked in hugger mugger, elitism and exclusion.
Sadly it is our own fault to a point.
