Image uploads are apparently disabled until later today, so, sorry frank I can't show you our winter wonderland. Work is busy. I have been tasked with opening one of our stations at Wrigley, it's been closed for several months. So I have to take Carl and Duane over to train and certify them to work there. Carl and I tried to go over on the 14th-in a blizzard. we didn't make it. It took us almost 6 hours to travel 78km and back. there was 12 to 16 inches of snow on the road. Duane and I went over on the 18th, we made it to Wrigley with only a bit of white knuckle driving. We got the airport open. There was no heat in the hotel. we had no choice but spend the night as the ferry stops running at 8pm. yesterday, still no heat in the hotel. I am too old for too much of that shit, so we came back home last night. Of course Duane put the company truck in the ditch just as we were ready to leave Wrigley, luckily I had my truck there and it was ez to yank him out. We got Duane trained and cert. so not a total loss. tomorrow Carl and I will go back(if they got the heat fixed) I'm sick right now too, so not having a lot of fun.
My boss told me the other day that my station(fort simpson) has won station of the year! Woo Hoo! we beat around 20 other airports for this honor. Ahh hell I'm gonna toot my own horn, I'm very good at what I do and it's not the first time the industry has taken notice. So they are flying me to fort smith next month to accept the award there, as ATS(the company I work for) will be having a to-do there celebrating mine and ATS's ten year anniversary. ten years, time, and airplanes, fly when yer having fun!
