Thunder Bay – Saturday – World Day of War Orphans

Well, all of you that wanted it snow, I hope you are happy.  You got your bloody snow.  Hurray! Yippee!

Thunder Bay – Friday – Twelfth Night

Another overcast morning. A bit warmer than yesterday. The view out there this morning.

Update on yesterday’s missing “Keep right around median” sign.   Action has taken place. A small traffic cone has been placed at the site of the sign. – Problem solved.  Why have a sign when placement of a damaged traffic cone will do.   Much cheaper.   Will the sign be replaced next week?  Next spring?  Summer?  We … Read more
