Ode to Dorothy Parker

"What fresh hell is this?" asked Dorothy Parker.  Surely no truer words have been spoken in describing dates like today.  This town is an anomaly...drive a few miles west towards the city and there is no snow.  At times we've had wind-chill hitting -20 or worse and they've been brisk, but bearable.  Now isn't the time, but there's no running water in this town.  We're on wells, yet pay more in taxes then people I know in the city.

The highway cameras show the mess.  Yes...highways.   One shot is of the Trans-Canada Freeway.

The power was out for several hours and it just flickered again a while ago.  So much as to the myth about the west coast being mild.  It doesn't hold true for this town.
