- January 2018 drive from Winnipeg to Kenora Ontario - "winter wanderland".
Kenora, originally named Rat Portage, is a small city situated on the Lake of the Woods in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, close to the Manitoba boundary, and about 200 km east of Winnipeg.
I worked with a little Black Guy at the Jenpeg Manitoba Power Dam one winter. The Temperature was dropping to around 50 degrees Fahrenheit at night and he had some Black Friends who decided to go back to Winnipeg for their break. They got out to the 391 Highway and turned South at Ponton on the Number 6 Highway South. They got about half way to Grand Rapids and their car broke down and they didn’t really have any Winter Gear. After about two hours another Vehicle stopped and helped them get to safety. To listen to Walter telling the story was really funny when he said, they were so cold that they were starting to turn White.
Great memories! Miss the cold actually and the squeak of snow under your feet. Now in Vancouver, snow maybe once a winter, some years none.
Used to go from Wpg to T-Bay regularly. Before that, was The Pas to Wpg regularly. The cold was okay, 'cause your in a car. When you hit those wild storms, oh yeah babe, we're having fun now. Can't see, just hope your on the road. Can't stop, 'cause a semi might think you're a snowbank. Sometimes, you do a little sideways driving, just to keep it interesting.
Don't miss it. Thanks
I have yet to make it to this part of the country! (I am from Nova Scotia). Looks so cold! We don't have any snow here, lol
