LarJgrip Loc: The Fraser Valley
 
Here's some shots one of the guys sent me. This is my home 20 days a month but it just so happens that I went on my turn around the day before the storm hit. I'll be flying back up this coming Sunday …I think :wink:

The second last photo is a couple of vehicles that haven't found their owner yet.

by the looks of it,it's time to put extentions on you furnace pipes (or some serious shoveling) or you could be losing the usage of the propane furnaces. Been there done that.

Can't say I do .It's been six years since I've been there. I worked mostly from Grande Prairie to Fort Nelson.Once in a while to Edmonston and Grande Cache. Road mantanance super.Did it for a year and decided my life was worth more than what they were paying. Gave them the year I had promised and came home.

Lar was those pictures taken in the construction village? You say that it's your home for 20 days,are you a oil patch worker on a rig?

You said that right, same here in Chilliwack. Lots of warm rain.

Yes these pictures were taken in the camp but there's no oil patch here that I know of. We're building the new aluminium smelter.

Glad to be in Florida. On the bright side, looks like you have your entry for the "Frozen" challenge this week.

That's a good question and I'm not there right now, so I haven't seen any notifications. But I'm guessing that they're trying to clear the parking lot of snow. It's a large parking lot and a logistic nightmare.

I saw on YouTube a pickup getting dragged out for whatever reason so that's what I think they're trying to do.
