Thank god I chose to leave my car at home today. Was riding shotgun with a friend around Richmond today and good lord, it gave me cancer. It's as if not a single person in Richmond knows what a fucking four-way stop is, and people jaywalking all over the fucking place. Nearly saw two cars get smoked essentially not giving a fuck about non-functioning traffic lights and saw a couple cars smoked already left abandoned at intersections.

Richmond logic = oh there's a storm going on, better cross the road wherever the fuck I want

:facepalm:

Saw this on No. 6 in Richmond. No idea if the owner had seen it yet, but if not they're getting a hell of a surprise on Monday.

Back to the stone age it is. Perfect time to fire up the barbeque and put everything raw in the freezer and fridge on there :troll:

our power came back around 8-8:30, just as i was done barbecuing some steaks, at least we didn't need to eat by candlelight

cousin wanted to go to the mall or just 'cruise around' sounds like i made the better choice of just staying in

I remember many years ago in Richmond my aunt and uncle (and two young children) had to come stay with us for about 4-5 days during winter when their power went out and bchydro was taking their sweet as time fixing the problem

My first place in crescent beach was without power for 3 days around 8 years ago. Also in the winter time. That wood burning fire place was a life saver!
