Winter came early

As you can see our winter came early this yr. What a mess it has been the last few days and not having a plow that is a lot of snow to shovel by hand. Must have a weight of 20lbs per shovel. My guess would be that this is a way of seeing if you are fit or will have a heart attack!

As well it has it must come off our balcony (oops sorry Workdeck) as we are not sure it will hold that much weight. And wish we had a side door to go and keep the sat dishes clean. Boy are they missed when they are out!! And everyone is not happy as when the aln is down this is our only means of chatting to each other. They are trying to fix the aln again in this cold weather it seems to be having a hard time staying on line. Oh well such is life on the lights..

We are getting ready for Christmas so it is nice to see the chopper come means mail and getting boxes out.. which is great. We still have to get the lights up for outside and light up the station like every yr. It must be something to come upon colour lights in the middle of no where. It is our hope that it adds some bit of cheer to those who have to work in the isolation like us. So off I go to get a few more things ready for the chopper.. Take care all later from the Bluff
