My wife sent me this article and reminded me of a conversation we had last March, just 2 days after we sold our house in Caledon...
Me: I'm really looking forward to finding a new house in Barrie or Innisfil.
Her: I'm worried there's gonna be a lot more snow to deal with.
Me: It won't be any different than we get here in Caledon. You're worried about nothing.
Her: We'll see....

Just returned from a short walk and experiencing our first snow melt around the new neighbourhood. At our house inspection last April the 2 sump pumps in the basement were running constantly due to a heavy rain outside. The ditches were full of fast flowing water and since we were so close to the lake I asked our agent to check into any flooding problems. We were told that there were no issues at our end of the small community but a little further south was designated a flood zone. Our new neighbours confirmed that there has been no flooding on our street in 30 years.
These photos were taken 2 streets south of us, perhaps a metre difference in elevation. Town of Innisfil crews were out blocking streets with cones and keeping culverts free of ice and debris. I now understand why almost no houses/cottages in this area have basements.

My wife and I were talking about #ElectricVehicles today, as our car was running low on gas and prices spiked to $162.5 in and around Innisfil. So of course my thoughts drifted to the cause of the latest impact on those of us still burning #FossilFuels. It's time for some storey telling.
His royal orangeness, the stable genius occupying the White House, sets the stage for this tragic comedy on day one of his administration. With the stroke of a pen in his tiny little hand, he signs an executive order killing all #EV mandates and revoking unspent rebate funds.
