still snowing at Knight/41st too.

I too love the snow. This is quite enjoyable, there being less cars on the road!

lol yea... at least when west jet cancels or delays their flights they offer to book you a hotel and offer a slice of pizza while ur there at the time haha. What does Air Canada do? Go on TV and say they're sorry and cancels all flights.

They are saying this is the biggest snow in 50 years. I came here from Aurora Oregon, (25 miles south of Portland Oregon) We use to get hella Ice Storms, but almost never snow. So the snow is kinda new to me, the driving in Ice is 2nd nature.

God, that's a pet peeve of mine. One of our neighbours visitors has done that on more than one occasion. They'll park one side of their car on one of the cleared tracks so people can't get through. People either have to get out and dig the snow out of the way so they can go around the car, or drive dangerously close to the parked car. It's a back alley for christs sake - there's barely any room to move when there's no snow. I wish they'd have some common sense to either park closer to the fence so that they don't block one of the tracks, or find somewhere else to park. Ugh...people like that make my blood boil!

heh...yeah, not so concerned about the comforts of a hotel or a pizza - I just want to know what the hell is going on so I'm not in the dark. It seems that they think that people will be upset if you tell them what's going on. Little do they know that people get MORE upset when you DON'T tell them what's going on. This goes for Air Canada AND Translink...
