Heading back to Gypsywind

The winter is closing in here in BC. the day we left the snow broke out just after we left Nelson. By the time we got to Kootenay pass it was white out conditions. How do I know you ask? Because Kim also had her nose to the windshield and she couln't see any better.After lunch Kim took over driving, it is still snowing,and I dose off, wake up and Kim is saying we are approching Elko. Elco I've never been in elko. Must have taken a wrong turn we are now going the Crows Nest Pass the wind is blowing so hard, "we could die if we break down. we get to Fernie, a foot of snow on the ground, roofs, cars. It's winterwonder land. We cross over into Alberta, and it's cold , very cold. We Get to Calgary, We are to fly out in the morning,it's -22C the bloody snow is squeeking as you walk.We are 3 hrs late but alive. 5 Hrs sleep and we are good to go.The car will never start in 18 days,but so what we are out of here. The flight  was normal, West Jet, except for the guy who thought the world revolves around him, and talked my ear off. We land, it's hot, and muggy,with a damp concrete smell.The Kids can remember way more Spanish words then us. Gypsy wind sits at her slip as destingished as ever.As we climb down the  companion way we get a smell of desel, we've arrived!
