The snowplow ridges were almost as high as the street lights when we were transported downtown in the taxi. When we arrived in Cranbrook, it was beautiful but -25F. However, they don't have the dampness that we have here.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comments.

I had to stop reading the blogs to go pick up Mimi at the hair dresser (during that time you posted another) and when I got home I was so hungry I had to try the pickle sandwich (never had one) I must confess I did not put butter on mine but mayo and you did not say if the pickles were dill or sweet so all I had were flat oval dills. It was rather good but I think I like a red onion or sweet onion sandwich better. Use mayo, onion and white bread. <BR/>I also picked up my award and will post it later. Thanks so much. <BR/>I flew a few kites in my youth and we had a perfect place across the creek in a not yet planted tobacco field. Tobacco farming in the late 50 and 60 was hard work. If you wish to make a kid want to leave the farm just plant tobacco. <BR/>Burrr I feel like a sissy with our 18 degrees this morning and 33 degrees now. <BR/>Keep warm.
