I had an e email early in the AM notifying me of an incident late last evening.
I had not noticed it, but some time yesterday afternoon the council had placed a new communal garbage box across from us. Nice new plywood painted spruce green.
Now I have no issue with these boxes, except if they look like the one it replaced and are creating an environmental and health issue.
The incident; well an axe wielding female apparently has her own issues with garbage boxes, or maybe just this particular garbage box.
Said female was noticed hacking into the box with great gusto, about 14 to 15 hits were rendered before becoming exhausted.
The close up shot shows that the 14 to 15 hits maybe just about correct.
The noise was heard in our house, I guess we are so used to strange noises emanating from the neighborhood at night that we don’t bother to investigate as a rule.
So we did not get the ‘snow bomb’ as some describe snow storms these days. In keeping with the trend of the last several years these storms seem to track south of Nain and even south of Natuashish.

An axe wielding woman? Would that be a Viking perhaps? Or maybe a character from a Stephen King novel?
Not much of a Viking as her statute is very small and has an unassuming demure, except in some cases obviously.
My hypotheses for what it is worth: In this case it is a form of protest; Inuit know they have no voice so some resort to this type of vandalism to express their frustrations with society and/or government.
