Would You Like Some Ice?

[stewey]

Major ice storm here in the Toronto area. 0ver 300.000 people with no hydro. Here's shot from a friend's balcony. I should have used a tripod, but I think you'll get the picture. At the top you can see part of Lake Ontario.

I will when I go out later; however, I'm not going to risk the field or the sidewalks: I'll plod along the side of the roads:)

[tonyav]

Gonna be hard traipsing over the field later, stewey.

[stewey]

I did it yesterday, Tony, and it was treacherous. Seeing as how we've had eight more hours of the freezing stuff I'm not doing it this afternoon.

[tonyav]

How about ski's, stewey.

[Tilly2]

It's amazing how you all cope with these storms. When you say 300, 000 people without hydro, do you mean electricity? Have there been fatalities?

Maybe skates...If I had any. I'll just traipse along the side of the road; they've been salted and sanded (I hope!)

[Tilly2]

Do you have snow shoes?

[stewey]

How in hell did you get my picture, WR? Yes, Tilly, electricity, and it might take up to three days to get back to normal.

[tonyav]

Hey Ron, we got issued with those ( in your link ) at work last winter !.

[tonyav]

No electricity !, hope these people manage to stay warm.

[whiskeryron]

I wear 'em as we speak & every winter.

[tonyav]

Got to admit they were nice and warm, Ron. Especially on the 6am till 2pm shift.

[Tilly2]

I bet you weren't draped in two lovelies when you were wearing them, Yont.

[tonyav]

HeY, I wore them underneath my clothes you know, Yilly.

[Tilly2]

Oh, not like Superman, then?

[tonyav]

Not while it was about -6 outside, Yilly.

I still haven't found a string vest:) Just listening to the news, and numerous gas stations are closed I've still got half a tank left.
