Winter Arrives Grande Prairie

Tuesday, January 17, 2012
Cold, wind, and snow were arriving as we were departing Grande Prairie. Ravens
 were sailing in the wind above the trucks in the Guest Parking Lot, and here is one brave one either guarding the drive-way or hoping for treats from Del Monica's .
 
 
Let us not feed the wildlife, rather let us look after ourselves and each other, be sure we have our warm layers and toques and mittens and scarves with us, and maybe one extra in case we meet someone without. Exposed skin is freezing in five minutes, and we don't want anyone to suffer frostbite injury. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.
