I’m sure my youngest brother Wee Willie will say the snow today is retribution by the heavens for electing an NDP government in Alberta. I think it’s actually a test. A test to see how we react to crisis, a crisis of no heat and a snow storm outside our house on wheels. We did what anyone would do, use our lifeline, call an expert. Thanks Ken, who knew that you have to click on the “gas heat” button on the thermostat and that the electric heat was actually linked to the air conditioning. Now if I had only packed my boots.

The calm before the storm

Lunch on the picnic table anyone?
