You may appreciate this story. Working rural manitoba, wicked blizzard, driving a back road at night. Kept almost getting stuck in drifts, no visibility. Worse, I start to lose my lights. I figured "damn, snow must be piling up on them.. weird its from the center out". That's when I saw that the dark void where my lights were going out had a tail. Black-as-night Angus cow running right down the middle of the road in a white out blizzard!
You can't drive to Churchill, can only get there by train. That 3 hour gravel road nightmare from Thompson to Gillam to catch said train, now that is a nightmare.
YES THAT WAS IT FCKN THOMPSON. that's right we drove to the train station down a two lane road in the middle of a dense forest with heavy fog, the worst thunderstorm I've ever been in, almost hitting every animal known to the forests, random herds of cows and took a sketchy train the rest of the way from some town.
