Scene at 8:30 this morning, all planes are on hold, not looking good for the rest of the week either.

Matthew supposed to fly out to visit Carter too, Guess he will be antsy all day.

I like it that CAI-Nunatsiavut Marine has on line shipping updates.
Trouble is that the Dutch Runners ETA's to any one port change regularly. One would think they could gestimate a little more accurately.

The old crowd who ran the shipping hid all this information, they did have a toll free number for update that was not that reliable for the freight vessel.

So is it better to have it 'out there' and update all the mishaps and slow downs, or the old way. I think the new crowd are trying but are a little bit out of their league, lets hope time ups their game and they qualify for the Labrador Coast league.

Happy 4 July to all you folks down in the states.

Here is a little update on the lack of internet services I wrote about previously. Election ploy, blowing smoke, too little too late, who knows. Point is it proves my point about nothing much getting done in this part of the world without some sort of corporate welfare.
Then if not for corporate welfare you would not be reading this blog, oh dial up was just too slow and painful for this type of social media.

No oversight or internet problems, just not in the oh joy and happy are we mood at the time.
Did not see any happy aboriginal day from any canuks, nor have I ever seen any happy Oz day sent my way from canuks.

If it makes you feel better i did send happy little greetings in private correspondence to some.
