Were used to those temperatures now. We just got over a cold snap that lasted about 3 weeks or so. Last week...it wasn't too bad but we are starting to get nice temps finally. The coldest we got was -38°C. Highs around -25°C. But that isn't abnormal for here...it just doesn't last as long as it did. When -15°C feels like a heatwave, you know it was cold :-)

Hope you survive the cold.

These temperatures really remind us to count our blessings...for warmth, covering, and food to eat!

We went out late this afternoon, and I couldn't BELIEVE how cold it was!
