The Canadian Contingent (Part 2)

If some being could cross interstellar distances to get to earth, there would finally be something intelligent down here. I would worship them as my new god and ask them to tell me everything they know.

In our part of AB itā€™s good right now but this is coming to a close soon as the Temps are starting to decline and weā€™ll inevitably plunge into the white abyss. Our town put out a water restriction yesterday.

Located an estimated ~2h away from you there @Fortman420 , can confirm.
Its been absolutely beautiful! , The bare field near my house is noticeably green with sprouts very wild to see this time of year but also incredibly worrisome.

Itā€™s blowing hard here in Bridgewater, snows piling up deep in places, just had to clear 8 inches off the back deck so our little dog could go out for a pee without drowning in it lol. I should have dragged some wood up to the house yesterday for the wood stove, itā€™s going to be a struggle now, might have to use the snow blower to clear a 70 meter path first from the barn :tired_face: itā€™s nasty out there.

At least the snow is powdery so itā€™s not going to bring power lines down combined with the wind, minus 4 with minus 15 wind chill, not looking forward to all the snow from the blower being blown into my face :slightly_frowning_face:

This is literally one of the worst feelings, especially if it gets down your neck into your coat! Just thinking about it gives me the shivers! Iā€™d imagine a snowblower is a necessity out there huh?
