Paul: Speaking of the oxen and since we are on the subject of a Halifax snow storm and now global warming. I have another friend that lives in sight of Sam and Murray. Lloyd was there long before Sam and a few years before Murray. I can remember going to Lloyd's when at 10pm you could see 4 other farmstead lights and that is all. Today it is as urban as they come. Ten years ago I was visiting Lloyd and his 75 year old father headed out into traffic with his IH Scout. In Lloyd's lifetime Cole Harbour Road has gone 1.5 lane gravel road to 4 lane main thuroughfare with a 5th lane for turning left.

I asked Lloyd how his father adjusted to the changes. Lloyd's reply,"He has adjusted better than I." Lloyd and I wondered aloud what enviormental impact it would have if everything that now moves by there in a day was moved by horses. We agreed that snowplows would need to be out daily cleaning up the horse dung, as it doesn't melt. I suspect the horse dung may be a bigger problem than exhaust emissions.
