Dave the Dwarf?

My husband has a slightly longer than average commute to work: 3,875 km to be precise.
Dave is originally from Grand Falls-Windsor, Newfoundland.
But he and I call Moncton, New Brunswick home now.

It's not that unusual for someone from Newfoundland-- or anywhere in Atlantic Canada to head out across this vast country in search of work.
But Dave hasn't joined the ranks of the machinists and labourers in Fort McMurray.
Instead, he opted for something a little more exotic-- and complicated.
He works in Lac De Gras, North West Territories. A few hundred more kilometres north, and he could have joined the elves in Santa's workshop.
But instead, he followed the footsteps of Snow White's dwarfs right down the shaft of a diamond mine: http://www.diavik.ca/ . Yes, diamonds, and no, he doesn't get to bring home free samples *sigh*.

In this blog, I'll share Dave's travel adventures, my adventures while he's away, and anything else that happens to be on my mind.
Oh, and I might even let Dave write his own post from time to time.
Comments are always welcome.
