Stormy Night
Last night was one of the biggest storms we have had since moving to Dease Lake. While it didnt last too long, it was quite exciting. The snow was coming down hard, and combined with the strong winds and blown snow from the trees and rooftops, we were in pretty much total white out conditions. The trees were swaying like crazy - it was pretty cool.
The power also went out for a few hours. It started by going out for just a few seconds, then it happened again. When it came back on, Lyndsay grabbed some candles and lit them just in case. A few minutes later it went out a third time, and stayed out most of the evening. Its amazing how dark it can get up North when all the city (or should I say village?) lights are out. Total real darkness. After a while the clouds parted and the stars were brighter than I think I have ever seen them. Too bad, no northern lights last night. << Return to Blog << Return to DeaseLake.net |
