There's something about the weather...

Welcome to the first installment of our 875 part series about the weather.

Seriously, the last time I posted here, I was going on about the weather. Well things haven't changed much. This time its the rain. It seems to be non-stop nowadays. Go tune into the weather network, I can wait............

See, I told you. Even the tourist guide book talks about the weather. When so much of the industry in this province revolves around farming, the topic of conversation always seem to come around to the weather, but not in a small talk way either. Serious business this weather. Its even prevented some farmers from even getting into the field to seed. Everyone talks about cut-off dates for insurance, have they fertilized, will the provincial government step in and try and get more for the farmers.

So that's part of life here, but on to other things. We love our apartment. We have plenty of space. Thank God we were as organized as we were. It's made things so much easier for the unpacking. We are now at least in a livable state where we are not tripping over boxes. I also love being so close to shopping. I needed to run out for something and I managed to be home within 20 minutes. It's great.

So what else is new? It's been so long since we posted, you'll have to forgive us if we jump around in our timeline of events as we recall everything. There was the month-plus long fog when we got here. The deer. The snow. The cold. The wind. After this post, I will try to put as much down chronologically as possible.

In conclusion, here's a picture of a funnel cloud I saw at work yesterday.




Ducking for cover,
