The last few days are now a blur and I can’t even remember what I did on Thursday.  So knowing that I will have to start with Friday, which was the day the truck had to go back to town. Bev and I left the house around 9am and arrived in Dawson about 9:45 and were able to quickly go get a chain and blade for one of Ken’s chainsaw. By the way never have I seen more Northern metallic Stores in my life there were about 5 different ones (all for different things) with in seconds of each other. It was confusing to say the least. By the time we finished there it was time to take the truck over to Fountain Tire to get them to fix the alignment, so that I could drive straight once again. It took them just under 2 hours to do that and in that time Bev and I walk down to Tim Horton’s where I enjoyed a Bagel Belt and Bev had a Double Toast Blueberry Bagel. I quickly had to go to Canadian Tire afterward to get some decal stuff for the truck which I will not be able to put on unless I get it into a heated shop because it is apparently cold here in Yellowknife now. Anyways we walked back up town and proceed to see if the truck was done, which it wasn’t. We continued on to VHQ and as we did we saw my truck leave for the test drive, so after we finished at VHQ we made our way back to Fountain tire where I got my truck back. Which drives in a straight line. We the hit up Co-op building store for electrical wire staples, and then to Peavey Mart. Which is now my ultimately favorite store, enough said. The store has it all. Its pretty much a Farmers dream, a hardware/clothing/princess auto store! I was able to get 2 pairs of bib-pants one being insolated for almost half what you would get charged at Marks Work Warehouse (previous favorite…). After we retired to Robins Donut Shop, the most relaxing place in town. I personally think it is a few notches slower than the rest of the town, which is nice because no one is ever in a rush to get in and then out again. The place is normally full of old farmers, who are there with their buddies enjoying life. It’s awesome. While we were there I took my truck over the Swervin Kervins to get the Thermostat fixed. I dropped it off at 1pm and he told me it would probably take just over an hour, so I went back to Robins and we sat talking there for another 45 minutes. Just as we were about to leave to go walk around downtown some more I got the call from Kervin saying my truck was done already. That was amazingly fast and I am very grateful for all of his help.  We got home, as Ken was finishing work, as we did we found out about the wonderful new that the power was off Yet again.  We as a group, DECIDED to go cut some more firewood. As we were driving out to the spot, I think some one lost some ambition. ….. Not going to name any one, Ken. But the lack of ambition and the fact that it did start to snow were both factors in the decision to go back home. Upon returning from the drive, we found still no power. After a quick discussion and a change of plan we left for dinner in Dawson. We had originally planned on pressure-cooked rids for super and then to Grand Prairie for super on Saturday.  Tony Roma it was, but for some reason it just wasn’t as good as pressure-cooked rids.  The power was still not on as we returned and did not come back on until 11pm that evening. The cause of the constant power outages was the 80km/h winds we were getting in the area. The trees would fall and would instantly short out the power wires. Friday was Eventful!
