Morning all! Had an icy drizzle overnight, cars coated in a thin layer of ice this morning.

Morning, no severe weather around here for the past bit or the near future. Just had a tim's coffee and a sausage and cheese breakfast sandwich - so I'm half content.

How are winters up there? My wife and I loved it when we visited at the end of September beginning of October a few years back. Charlottetown reminded us of Ann Arbor with the college in the middle of it.

I think they would be pretty similar to what you have - since you are so close to the water - I think we would share similar temperatures. We do get a ton of snow, and usually after December all the side roads are ice/snow covered until the end of March. But it actually is quite scenic in the winter. We don't get much tourism though.

I know, the biscuit is pretty dry eh? Even if they buttered it or something to moisten it. Takes a whole coffee to get it down. Salty and good! But they have a Coffee + donut deal going on right now that I may have to take advantage of... also I felt bad going through the drive through this morning and paying my $3.67 with Mastercard, lol.

I'm sure they are used to it... I think it's the only place in the country that still doesn't accept debit. Got my XL 1 sugar coffee looking at me. I'm a little pissed they increased their prices though

This evening Future Shop is coming to pick up their shitty ass washer and dryer. I need to find something else now.

Closest Tim's to me is almost 20 miles away, Wendy's had a Tim's in it by my wife's work but Wendy's shut it down, only sold donuts and coffee no sandwiches.

There was frost on the grass this morning.

I'm at my morning spot, got one of those turkey, egg, cheese, and tomato on an english muffin things.

And the usual green tea.

Just finished my cup of coffee brewed out of my Keurig coffee maker. Man I love this thing.

I think that we have gotten Canada's winter this year. We already have almost as much snow this year as we did last year with three more months of weather coming and a major storm brewing for this weekend. Of course it has had to happen while I am building my house, but we are making it. Should have heat this weekend which will make finishing the electrical much more bearable.
