Back in October I was waiting at a red light when I saw the Google Street View camera car drive by. My Red Journey is now immortal as pics on the net are forever! https://www.google.ca/maps/@49.801858,-97.165727,3a,75y,180.74h,90.84t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1s_oTjSQjM2Q2MqX08xVk7Eg!2e0 :shades: H.P.

First into dealer this morning, Out in 15 minutes. Code said battery in fob low so they changed battery (no charge) and reset. We'll see if this reappears, as it was a one-of thing and hasn't repeated and there were no start/entry issues. Will watch and repost anything that happens. My service guy said yes, Chargers have this occurring, but not much activity on Journeys. I'm only 2km from the dealer so can pop over if there is recurrence If anything happens at least there is paperwork in the system. H.P.

Will do. Appointment @ 7 am Thurs. I'm an early bird. (old buzzard)

Hey! Got that *service keyless system* message today. Gee, I'll have to pop by the dealer and have it looked at . First visit for anything, other than oil changes, since I bought my Big Red. This should be exciting!

75.9 @ Costco here in Winnipeg.

He'll be back!

Next week. Coming here too.

Woo, The Weather Channel calls us mean names! We're maulers up here in Manitoba. LOL http://www.weather.com/storms/winter/video/what-is-an-alberta-clipper-a-saskatchewan-screamer-and-a-manitoba-mauler

Dear American Friends and Eastern Canadians (east of Mb/Ont border) . We are sorry. There is another miserable and frigid cold blast coming your way. Enjoy! H.P. On the prairie....

That reminds me of this classic.

Shhhh. Don't tell him about the Ti. bikes. 8k.... HP

I leave bread outside for the local Sasquatches. Here ya go. http://icepalacehawaii.com/

A few weeks in Waikiki makes winter pass by a little faster as we age! Not going this year, because of family issue, but will be there next year! Note. There is a hockey rink in Honolulu!

Have seen lots of those really fat tire bikes. Never ridden one and can't imagine how heavy they are. I used to use 2.35 wide tires and they floated in sand/snow quite well. I'm sure those really fat suckers would float well, but lord it would be a slow ride! I suspect the reason they sell these days, is that it is unique and trendy. The baggy pant types will fall for them.

No mountain biking because of a little snow? **GASP** Get some fat tyres, dress for it and get out there! We have fun in the dead of winter, on a full moon night, 15 below F, NO clipless pedals, on the snow packed snowmobile trails in Birds Hill Park, a few km north of here. Lots of stars on a crisp and crunchy night and can see quite far with the full moon. We ride the trails backwards (one way) so we can see the headlight of the snowmobile coming and knowing they can't see us in time to slow down, we dive into the deep snow filled bush just before they arrive. An absolute hoot! Tight fitting cross country ski gear keeps you warm and it's a fantastic workout.

Hey! Since I'm a heated seat sissy I gotta get me one of those pink things!

It's coming....... Cold Canadian Air! I'm going outside to huff and puff facing south east!

Ha! Sissy eh.... Just wait. I took a look at this weeks forecast for the GTA and guess what? -15C is the high for Wed. There will be screams of pain and the "dangerous cold" will be the lead item on The National News! The headline in the Center of the Universe newspapers will be proclaiming the end of the world as we know it too!

Winter on the Canadian Prairie. Crisp, crunchy snow and a wind chill of -36C. Drives me nuts when the weather talking heads describe it as a "feels like" temperature. Never understood that one. Yup, it's cold. Dress for it and shaddup! Of course then I turn on an American TV station and you'd think it was the end of the world because there is a "feels like" temperature of -14 F.in Kansas. Or worse, it's 25 F in Dallas! Brings tears to my eyes. I'm sure the crowd in Minnesota care as well. Our winter weather brothers..... First time for heated seats and heated steering wheel. I know I"m turning into a suck. But boy, it feels nice! One good thing about these temps. The Journey stays clean. H.P.

Get one shipped in from Canada. Then you can have DRL's I see a local dealer here has two Copper Pearl 2014's One is a Limited, the other an RT. Not sure what the rules are for doing that. H.P.

Good Grief! Sorry to see this. Looks like a lot of damage. Lemme guess. The 18 yr old was using a cell phone in some sort of fashion, when she missed the red light? It would be interesting to check out her phone records. H.P.

Melville Saskatchewan! Pronoucer for the Americans; Sasss Kaaa Chew Wannn. Now say it fast 3 times. HP

AKA. The center of the universe. (in their minds) Ok, I'm just kidding! A little poke of fun from the hinterland, out here on the Prairie.

Awww, that sucks! Make you wonder where some people learn to drive. I avoid any mall or worse yet, Walmart parking lot in December. Xmas shoppers. UGH!
