A Canadian in Search of the Emerald City

The intent and purpose of this blog is to inform my loved ones (that's you!) of my comings and goings. While I do love writing and receiving emails, sometimes it just isn't possible to correspond with each of you individually. You may call it "laziness". I call it "proper time management".

Fogging and floods

Winnipeg has been making national headlines this week due to the fogging and the storms. They haven't actually fogged my neighbourhood yet, and I don't know when they will, but the mosquitoes do seem to be getting better. Perhaps it is the placebo effect. They have sprayed in some of the neighbouring (across the river from me) regions so maybe that has helped it. But I didn't wear repellant yesterday or today and have only (knock on wood) gotten one bite. The storms are not making things better (just what we needed, more rain). And the prizes (plasma screen tvs) from this weekend's Dragon boat race got washed away in the storm. Our house is intact, save for a little leaking around the edge of the garage. Trees in some parts of the city were completely uprooted and/or split in half. Anywho, back to work...
