Thanks man, can't wait to see my little fella!
Going to be a long day, flying out at 12:30PM Eastern, don't expect to be there and settled before 10:30PM . Two flights and a 40 minute car ride from Terrace to Kitimat!

So 10 minutes from arriving at the airport we find out or flight is delayed by 2 hours, makes the gap between landing in Vancouver and taking off for Terrace pretty tight, bastards

Well, the bastards have delayed our connecting flight by 30 minutes as well. This is a good thing as we will ow have a bit more time to make our connecting flight. This is good because with my back running through the airport is not an option.

Just keep reminding yourself what the reward will be at the end of the day!

No time for anything in the Vancouver airport except to scurry to the gate for the connecting flight! On top of the delay leaving Toronto we had 200 km/hr headwinds, damn that jet stream...
Got on the second flight in rainy Vancouver and arrived last night, little Leo was already down for the night will see him today. Second picture is the frosted tips of the trees coming into Terrace

This isn't in any way to get political, just a comment about circumstances affecting this little town of Kitimat British Columbia.
With an LNG plant being destroyed in Qatar, the LNG plant here in Kitimat that was completed in the last couple of years is already looking at ramping up production to help fill the resulting global void for this form of energy.
I am sure other producers will be doing the same, this is just some "local news" from North Western BC.

I do wonder if that will make a meaningful difference on their decision to build the second train at the LNGC site. The company I work for runs a camp there and it was almost mothballed so it might be busy again soon. Course all this stuff is years ago so any planning around immediate spikes is complete guesswork.

From what the news reparts, I have to assume that the current facility is producing to demand, not capacity. But what do I know. The benefit to the local economy would be marginal, but it wouldn't hurt a remote community.

Damn! It gets a little hard to imagine that when it is in the 80s F. Of course, my travels today only involved a trip to work and to the brewery.

It did this here last evening while it was about 2C, we got about 5" of heavy wet stuff. Doing the same thing again now, but we are supposed to get a lot of rain in the next few days.

If you don't like the forecast here, check again later. You may like it more or less, but it changes with great regularity. The heavy snowfall expected in the next few days, was supposed to be rain a couple of days ago. It could still end up being rain, or snow, but won't likely be nothing. Life in a northern rain forest...
