AAAhhhh, gotta love Oak Bay, the Riviera of Canada! Must be the proximity to the Japan Current. Oak Bay is always a month or two ahead of the rest of Canada for escaping Winter's icy grip. I remember my last visit to Vancouver Island, I think it was '97. We gathered Airfield Engineers from B.C., Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland to build some storage buildings for the Helicopter Squadron at Pat Bay. It was about the same time of year as now and the Eastern by's were amazed at how pleasant the weather was.
Unfortunately, someone in Manitoba left the door open and an Arctic blast has just hit Texas...our temp. plummeted 50 degrees F. overnight and we're now in the 20's! BBRRrrr!
CLOSE THE DOOR! YER LETTIN' THE BOUGHT AIR OUT!
