Temp: 24 degrees
Warmer today, but still windy. Not like it matters, the only sun I saw was during the 3 minute walk to the mall food fair for lunch. Other than that, just more work work work.
One interesting thing I noticed last night though, is that the sun didn't set until well after 10pm and it wasn't even dusk until 11. I guess it's a combination of being on the flat prarries (no mountains for the sun to hide behind), being at a higher elevation, being so much farther north, and being in the middle of the time-zone instead of being at the far end of it, like we are in Vancouver. i figure the amount of natural light at 11:15PM was about what Vancouverites can expect at 10PM this time of year, plus the fact that the sun was already well up and at'em long before I was (I was up at 6AM), there must be at least two more hours of daylight here right now, if not more. It's a wonder you don't see more tanned Edmontonians!
