Snow storm

YEP, that's what I said, Snow Storm here in Fort Nelson, BC. Leaving Fort Nelson yesterday morning, forecast was for showers with falling temperatures during the day. Wll, we made it 45 miles from Fort Nelson before we had to pull off on a tun out, as the handling was going away pulling the Crusader 270ret. Within a hourmof us pulling off, we had seven other various RV's joining us. The snow continued to fall at an alarming rate anf by 9:00 pm we already had at least three inch's on the truck. Broke out our new Hyandi 2000SI Gen Set and fired up the furnance. All was fine until 2:00 am when the Gen Set went out of gas. Spent the better part of an hour re-fueling the gen set, pouring gas from a 5 gallon Gerry Can in the middle of the night is not very easy. Swapping that for a five gallon one...Anyway by 6:00 am this morning, the snow plows had cleared a route for us all the way down the mountain. We dreove 274 miles tro Watson Lake and away from snow. Really weard having snow this late in the season as most of the old timers we spoke with during the day.

Off guard

Sure caught us of guard..could not have planned for this...we did in fact bring winters clothing just in case and pf course having the new gen set made it all just a walk in the park.

Nothing to worry about, nothing to see here, just the standard continuation of Pole Shift that is taught in all science classes. It has nothing to do with global whoa... climate change...
