It's been awhile



Well here's a few days all at once, it will be quick. OK, drywall, drywall, drywall that looks after a few right there. In fact I'm about half way through the walls. In between blowing snow and hauling firewood (been a bit cool here especially during the nights) I got in some snowshoeing.

On to the trail and took a path up to a high point directly north of the trail. Good view up there I could even see the towers of Gowganda. These pics are looking towards the west.

Speaking of towers, I got a call from a lady at Ontera looking for my address, they are sending out a letter to say that nothing more will be done to the tower in Gowganda until the Shining Tree tower is standing. Not only that they are having trouble with getting a permit for the tower in Shining Tree. What a disappointment after all the build up with the new tower standing there ready. Paul and I are still looking into what all this will mean.

Ah, drywall. We finished our attic with the help of friends. The mudding, the sanding, the dust. It seemed to never end. And we did ours in the spring. That joint conpound must be taking forever to dry! Still loving your pictures, and what is the tower for anyway? Keep warm.

Hi Brook
The new tower will finally give us hi-speed internet. Most of us are on dial up including myself. It's blazing speed is 26Kbps,some lucky folks have hi-speed via satellite. Most of these will switch to the new tower method when it comes in
