My wife was born and raised in L'Anse-so I've been through Christmas a number of times. Many years ago, when we were in college, we broke down in Christmas in the wee hours of the morning as we were on our way to her folks for a holiday. State Police stopped and then went and got a fellow they knew who could help us out - he wouldn't take a dime for his help and I've never forgotten his great kindness to a couple of newlyweds.
I would imagine you are probably waist deep in snow by now? Hope you had a nice Christmas in Christmas and best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year!
