icey cold beer says:
the snow started when we got off the boat
icey cold beer says:
while i was in the line i called neil and asked him if i could borrow the walky talkies
icey cold beer says:
so i gave one 2 kara when she got there
icey cold beer says:
and we were in communication the whole time
MOM says:
that is really neat..like cia agents
icey cold beer says:
i was taking the lead most of the way because she had a head light out
MOM says:
what was the driving like today
icey cold beer says:
and also i cuold telll when the road was getting slick
icey cold beer says:
and also she could tell me abotu the big trucks pulling up along side
icey cold beer says:
the road s there weren't that great
MOM says:
i guess everything was closed on pei today and it is very windy there
icey cold beer says:
there was lots of cars in the ditch

MOM says:

icey cold beer says:
it was a nice day with out sun shine in halifax when we left
icey cold beer says:
after the airport it got real crumby
icey cold beer says:
i drove on all kinds of conditions today
MOM says:
Kenny is still not that great..i talked to saundra tonight and he has some shingles breaking out on his body now...he was on morhpine and he was travelling all over the united states..to fort knox and fort worth...in his mind
icey cold beer says:
keeping that in mind we attempted to catch the 5:30 baot
icey cold beer says:
how long do shingles last?
icey cold beer says:
so i saw the signs saying this way to new glascow and also saying pei ferry
MOM says:
they took him off it and he was doing better tonight and sitting up in the chair...ate a little ice creamm..so he is just going to have the morphine as needed.
icey cold beer says:
but like the time with my friend keith from vancouver there is no "pei ferry" exit sign
icey cold beer says:
i'm wise to it now though and i anticipated that i would miss the exit again .
icey cold beer says:
i turned around well before anitgonish
MOM says:
a month or so...they start out as pimples,,then break open and pus comes out and they scab over..they are very, very painful before they pus out..and itcy
icey cold beer says:
but like last time i got lost
MOM says:
so..did you make the boat
icey cold beer says:
hell no
icey cold beer says:
with the weather and the not know ing where to go
MOM says:
you are kidding...you have to drive around after all that
icey cold beer says:
yep
icey cold beer says:
i just got hom 20 mins ago
MOM says:
you must be exhausted
icey cold beer says:
although i stopped at woody's before i came home
icey cold beer says:
i was up at 6
icey cold beer says:
and went to bed at 2
icey cold beer says:
and was up at 10 am yesterday
MOM says:
you need to settle down and relax and get some rest or you will get the flu back
icey cold beer says:
but i had a full 8 yesterday
icey cold beer says:

icey cold beer says:

icey cold beer says:
if we stay up alnight it will be fine
MOM says:

icey cold beer says:

icey cold beer says:
79 is the cheapest
MOM says:

icey cold beer says:
elewood is rescheduled for the morning
icey cold beer says:
i had it in the shop tuesday morning
icey cold beer says:
so he couldn't go
MOM says:
do you think anything will be open in the morning
icey cold beer says:
so hold on
MOM says:
is it still storming
MOM says:
ok
icey cold beer says:
he probably won't be going anywhere
icey cold beer says:
but just in case
icey cold beer says:
so i got to the middle of no where new glascow and i saw some people outside and i said how do i get to the ferry and he started to tell me to go through abercrombie or whatever but his buddy says it's easier if your not from around here if you go back to the highway
icey cold beer says:
i figured i might get lucky and i knew there was some cars causing problems back on the highway which was the reason i got of the highway but this is after i was an 1/8 of the way to antigonish
icey cold beer says:
and i had gone back
icey cold beer says:
so i found my self on a road heading toward the pulp mill
icey cold beer says:
and then a sign that said pictou landing
icey cold beer says:
turns out to be a "reserve"
icey cold beer says:
so we used the washroom and headed back the other way
MOM says:
oh great
icey cold beer says:
in through trenton
icey cold beer says:
at this point there is no way i'm going to make it to pei with out getting gas
icey cold beer says:
so she got some food and i attempted to get gas at a sobeys gas station
icey cold beer says:
but the power had been off and the pumps weren't coming back online
icey cold beer says:
so i went up the highway to the next station which was a shell so i got my airmiles., .
icey cold beer says:
and hit the highway again
MOM says:
what a voyage
icey cold beer says:
untill the pei turn off
icey cold beer says:
indeed
icey cold beer says:
the bridge was 60km/h restricted
MOM says:
you could write quite the blog about that trip
icey cold beer says:
i might just post this conversation
icey cold beer says:
but omit certain parts
icey cold beer says:
or not
icey cold beer says:
i'd have to edit
icey cold beer says:
i'm actualy gonna go out and take some stuff in and shovel some snow
MOM says:
no, make it really long
icey cold beer says:
i took my boots with me and a shovel .. just incase i need them
icey cold beer says:

icey cold beer says:
i didnt need them tell i got home
icey cold beer says:
the snow is drifted up to my waist at my step
MOM says:

icey cold beer says:
