Mardel/...Pseu, SFomL: Thanks for your kind concern.<br />Mardel/Duchesse: Doesn't surprise me that the two of you also own a copy of this great translation and both know how to hole up comfortably in a storm! Of course, the two of you right now are enjoying lovely weather and temperatures I'm envious of -- I do know that you earned them the hard way, so ENJOY!<br />Rosina: Yikes! That's the kind of hit I was worrying about yesterday. At least it was nothing like what happened to those poor drivers who had the tree come down on their cars on the Stanley Park Causeway!! Glad you found your way here, since we're practically neighbours ;-)materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-70032229646719308652010-04-03T15:38:02.581-07:002010-04-03T15:38:02.581-07:00That clip took my core temp down by at least 5 deg...That clip took my core temp down by at least 5 degrees. Glad you holed up. The Heaney Beowulf is beautiful. A good storm is profound and satisfying (short of the point of having your skylight cave in).Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-13903999549382949572010-04-03T14:24:31.552-07:002010-04-03T14:24:31.552-07:00The weather today in Vancouver is so much better! ...The weather today in Vancouver is so much better! We had a huge branch come down on the roof yesterday and knock out a few tiles. As a result, we sprung a leak in the upstairs bathroom, which caused the electricity to short. You have a lovely blog. I don't know why I haven't found it sooner, especially since you are a fellow Canuck.Antonia Rosinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213023670724061978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-40256661286535329392010-04-03T03:55:42.135-07:002010-04-03T03:55:42.135-07:00Oh Seamus Heaney's Beowulf on a stormy day, an...Oh Seamus Heaney's Beowulf on a stormy day, and perhaps a cup of tea as well? It sounds perfect. If it weren't so sunny and warm, and I weren't rooting around in the dirt, I would pull out my copy, sit right down, and join you. <br /><br />Hope travel is better today.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-45417381569007953562010-04-03T03:44:13.231-07:002010-04-03T03:44:13.231-07:00Wow - that looks like an amazing storm.
