And probably pretty soon. I know we are starting to get frost most nights now.

Well the good old truck didn't really want to start yesterday. It had been turning over kind of slow for the past couple of days. I wasn't really in the mood to buy a couple new batteries either. I added some water and cleaned the connections, which really didn't look that bad. Went out this morning to see if it helped. It did, almost flipped the truck over cause it turned over so fast.

Evening Doug. How's things over there? Weather is getting kind of nippy here. Snow can't be too far off.

Hey Val. Osoyoos is almost desert is it not. We haven't gotten much here the last couple of years.

Meanwhile, the Lower Mainland has been getting more than it's fair share.

I'd be happy if it didn't snow here any more. Keep it to the ski hills and Christmas morning would be fine with me.

I love the white stuff. Growing up in 100 Mile House, it isn't really winter if there isn't snow. Winters here just aren't the same...

When I was a kid we moved from the coast to Williams Lake. That was back when they got a ton of snow.

A skidoo there is like a surfboard in somewhere where you can't surf. Better load it on a trailer.

It's true. Seems like they don't get as much as they used to when I was a kid. They used to stop running the school buses at -36 and we could usually count on at least a few of those days off each winter. We'd stay home and keep the wood stove going so the windows wouldn't freeze.
