Incroyable!!

Snow, snow, snow... That's all I have for you since last Sunday, and cold! Three major snowfalls in a week. We hear stuff like "This is unusual" or We've never seen this" or "We haven't seen this in 40 years" or "It usually doesn't stay this long" - Riiigggggghhtt.

Construction has mostly been replaced by shoveling snow. It takes half the day to remove it to be able to do anything. Wednesday's storm left both cars stuck in snow at the lot. We had to call Francine to come rescue us and drive us home. Thank you Francine!! The next day Gerry tried to get a taxi to go to Robin's to get his other tires... No taxis were out! So Gerry and Claude hitchhiked and walked. Took them a few hours but they changed the tires and bought some chains.

They managed to get two walls up on Friday before Claude left for the Holidays. Saturday was break day and today more shoveling... They're calling for more snow all week - this isn't fun anymore!

Grand-mere Jacqueline,
You'll be able to tell your grand-kids that you were on the "Island" in the Fall of 2008, when the economy went down considerably and snow record went up tremendously!
