Coffee Service in Mudville
Today when I stopped for a coffee at Tim Horton's, I was served by Jan Betker and
Joan McCusker, they were part of the women's Olympic gold medal curling team in
Nagano in 1998. It was Camp Day at Tim's, and they were some of the celebrity help.
The rain continues today, the fields are flooding on some of the farms, it almost
looks like they are lakes. Ducks and geese are swimming around. With all the rain,
it becomes mudville, some of the soil just sticks to the soles of your shoes and
you instantly grow a couple of inches.
Rental car
My rental vehicle is a 2005 Toyota Sienna, just like ours except it is silver. When
I come out of a store I'm always looking for the gray one. As you can see I took
this photo yesterday.
Bratt's Lake Wildlife
I saw some wildlife today running around the bunker. You have to look closely to
see him. There were two of these guys running around chasing each other. The rain
is coming down harder now, so I went back inside to wait it out.
Raining and windy
It has been raining most of the morning and it is very windy. The temperature was
only 10 degreesC. Having trouble getting the equipment running properly.
Regina
Finally made it to Regina. Landed about noon local time. Drove out to the site,
it was a nice afternoon. The rain is on its way.
Flight delays!
I had an unexpected delay in Winnipeg this morning. I left Toronto at 6:30am this
morning and was suppose to be in Regina by 8:40am local time via a connecting flight
in Winnipeg. However, we were delayed a bit in Toronto and by the time we landed,
they wouldn't hold the other plane for about 10 of us. So we had to wait for the
next flight to Regina which was 3 hours later.
