Snow ... in October!!

So I just chatted with my Mom today, and they've had a whack load of snow in the Bulkley Valley! Enough snow to close the highways and knock out power! That's incredible! Thankfully my parents can hook up their tractor to the farm generator and make their own power :)

Here's a link to my good friends the Elliot's showing just how much snow there is in Smithers right now.

Holiday!

I had a wonderful holiay, going back up north to Smithers. It was so relaxing just to visit family and friends, and be in a church service where I wasn't doing anything!!

Highlights: my parents expression upon seeing their upstairs bathroom torn apart as my brother is renovating it (it was a good expression btw, the new bathroom is going to be fantastic!), my Mom's reaction upon realizing that the chair they thought that they bought from IKEA wasn't the chair that they actually got, and hiking with my Mom and her friends in the Babine Mountains - such a beautiful hike, eventhough my legs didn't quite appreciate what I put them through!
