It was a late start getting going. Hard to leave the coziness of family to venture out into whiteout conditions but after the farewell pancakes I was on my way again. I drove up to Amherst and cut across to Pugwash, then slowly made my way East, Southeast getting only a few shots before it got dark. I wandered a bit in the dark and eventually pulled over in Tatamagouche for the night. The wind still howling and rocking the truck as it blew the snow in sideways. Soon the snow stopped and a little rain, then it was mild and calm.
