That meant we had 11 days off, but where do you go in the maritimes in February! Saturday morning Bob went to a broadcast at the church and in the afternoon it started raining. It poured all the rest of the day and into the night and the wind howled. The temperature dropped and on Sunday morning everything was covered with an inch of ice. Bob couldn't get the drivers door open on his car and had to climb over the consol from the passenger side. One of the Senior Missionaries yanked at his door trying to open it until the handle broke off.
Monday I stayed indoors until the evening when we went home teaching.
Tuesday we had district meeting and then I went to Tara's and stayed with the boys while she went shopping. Bob had an eye infection that he didn't want to pass on to his grandsons. It was valentine's day and I received a dozen red roses from my Valentine. We also received some delicious home-made chocolates from Liam and family. Liam had talked his mother into teaching him how to make fondant, so they could have chocolates for Valentine's Day.
Today was a beautiful day. The ice had all melted and the roads were fine, so we went to Truro to the Colchester Archives and did a bit of research.
It looked like there had been quite a bit of snow in Truro and it was melting.
The Archives were on the site of the old Normal School.
Near the post office we saw a couple of wooden statues.
The above picture represents the Truro hockey team called the Bearcats.

I wish the ski hills here would get some snow.
