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.

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.
