Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

The great, wide-open state of Maine lies just to the south and west of us in PEI. We can get down to Bangor, home of the Bangor Mall, home of Uno's Chicago Grill, home of the Uno's Deep-Dish Pizza, in 8 hours.

The 2007-08 snow season in northern Maine smashed the old record (of 181.1) inches set in 1955. Caribou has now recorded 182.5 inches of snow this season.

Back in 1955, snow was just snow and lots of snow had a name: it was called "winter".

Now, it's "climate change", and it's a calamity.

And that's the way the snow-covered Ball bounces.

We, too, broke records of snowfall.
It is no April Fool joke, today we have over 3 inches from yesterday's snowfall.
He, it's April, not January!!
