We have actually had two days in a row above freezing. If I wanted to go camping though, I would need to take a snow shovel along. Still got a lot of snow.
Gotta get my rear furnace back together. Pulled and inspected the front last fall and installed a new circuit board. Got mostly done with the rear and then it got too cold to fool with. Gotta get ready to go fishing. Okay, I know, its still Feb. and the end of May is way off yet, but I gotta have a dream. |

Not camping this weekend but am taking my 1996 Georgie Boy down to the service depot to get a complete checkup. I bought it last fall and have not used it so I thought a complete going over by a pro would be in order. Then I can look after the smaller stuff as it arises. Rained last night so the snow is gone and the sun is shining. Getting excited to go from the east coast of Canada to the Yukon in the north west this summer. ( and back again if all goes well :-) ) |

Posted By GordN Getting excited to go from the east coast of Canada to the Yukon in the north west this summer. ( and back again if all goes well :-) ) Wow! That sounds like quite an adventure. We did the Calgory run a few years back and it was great. Hey, try to catch the "Stampede" while on your trip. It was really good when we were there. Nice city and nice event. |

In another life I attended the Calgary Stampede. I lived in Yukon and northern Alberta for a number of years before moving east. Did a lot of camping when in Yukon as the summer has 20 hours of daylight. Had a travel trailer and slide in camper ( Ford F250 4x4) at different times. In Alberta had a Class C. My wife still has family in Yukon and so we have a destination. We try to stay away from the cities as they really are all the same. Lots of traffic and impatient people.  NH is not very far away. Know people in West Lebanon who we will probably visit later this year via South Portland ME.

11 below this morning and no wind. We call that a nice morning here. The snow of yesterday, and the cold of today are heading your way Andre. Take plenty of warm clothes.  |

Last night we had something called "thundersnow" Pretty wild. I snapped these leaving the office. There is about 14" on the ground today. Pretty much shut the city down. |

And most of the time we Canadians get blamed for sending "Cold Canadian Air" to you south of the border  Today it is 14C ( Please forgive our different temps and litres and spelling  ) and raining. No snow in sight anywhere but the lake is still frozen. Looks like I live in the warmest area compared to some of you in the US.  Mind you I do not intend to drive anywhere north into New Brunswick where they still have not dug out from last week. |
