Winter isn’t done yet

Date:

Residents in some areas of the Interlake hauled out their shovels last week after temperatures dipped and Mother Nature offloaded more snow.

The Evergreen School Division even cancelled buses and closed schools last Thursday because of hazardous road conditions. 

Arborg-based artist and author Jerry Maryniuk  said it has been a “LOOONG winter.” Arborg got about two to three inches of snow, which formed into drifts about two to three feet high.

Maryniuk has a huge snow bank in his yard and said he’ll be glad when spring arrives. 

In the interim he put ink to paper and came up with a delightful cartoon depicting the labour involved in manually moving snow.

He said his next cartoon might deal with flooding if we get more snow.
