   And did you find something good at the usual Ladysmith store...?  Or did   
   you have to go elsewhere....?   
      
    NB>> Hopefully the storms have passed   
      
    MK> At least two more on their way with the one tomorrow carrying a severe   
    MK> wind warning along with the bucket of rain.    
      
   We had quite a bit of rain earlier this week, then just a dusting of   
   snow last night....   
      
    NB>> Are the storms rain or snow... or both....?   
      
    MK> Buckets and buckets of rain.  No mention of snow in the next two.  The   
    MK> weather person on CBC Radio One is calling for a Green Christmas this   
    MK> year which is normal for these parts.  Last Friday we had two power   
    MK> outages due to trees being toppled over the power lines.  However the   
    MK> last storm generated a tornado just east of Seattle so we definetly   
    MK> didn't get the worst of this series of storms.  Mind you it isn't over   
    MK> but if we escape damage tomorrow then we should be okay for the   
    MK> immediate future.  The long range forcast only calls for more (and   
    MK> more) rain.    
      
   And how are you faring now...?  Were you without power for long...?   
      
    NB>> so maybe we'll have a white Christmas....   
      
    MK> Is this a good thing?  If so then I'll wish it for you.    
      
   It's rather traditional here, so it does make it seem a little more   
   Christmas-y when it is white... it's looking like we may have only a   
   dusting, if anything, this year....   
      
    MK> Myself I am only looking to survive tomorrow's event.    
      
   Survival is a good thing.... ;)

   ... Eating an artichoke is like getting to know someone really well
