Frank, I remember those, but think they were abnormal. When I moved out there in '79 I thought I was in heaven. Through mid December it was still mid 40's(still F then). Followed by 8 to 10 weeks -20 and not much snow. In 80 we got a couple of inches early and no more snow or thaw for 5 months, then came those winters with lots of snow. I lived downtown, but springs in the suburbs were a riot. They just sanded on top of the snow and packed it down all winter and everywhere there was a manhole or sewer drain there was a pothole you could lose your car in. I hit one on Jasper so hard once it sheered off my drive shaft at one of the universal joints. Just a common occurrence those winters.

My favourite expression, I'm sure NSpolar is used to it as well, "but it's a dry cold".

It's the dry heat of the summers I miss. A couple of days before the tornado hit Edmonton I was in Drumheller where it was 120 down in that valley. A lightning storm the day before where there was no rain, just bolts hitting the bald prairie of eastern Alberta. Then the tornado.

Meanwhile, US$ flying but everything about gold except spot price is up. Lease rates, XAU, TSEGPM. Is the spring on the tic toc clock coming to the end of a cycle?

Regards

Bob
