hmmm.....Isn't a Turn Pike 2 of those big things that go down the road that nobody seems to see. Or let in. Oh well guess you just have to push your way in. The only thing worse in the wind would be a empty cattle hauler. So I've been told. But I've only hauled A-Trains.....Hmmmm Bet there's only 3 people here that know what that is.

Neighbour had a tree blow over. Luckily missed my house but took out my lines. That was Wednsday about noon. Hydro was here immediatley due to the lines crossing the road:biggrin: , but I just got my tele/adsl back now and no sign of Shaw yet:twised: . Been laid up with sciatica for a few weeks now so I couldn't even go and do anything. 3 days of no tv or internet for an old cripple has to be even more pain than the one in my butt:lol: . Wonder what I did before cable:question:
