Beautiful cold, winter Sunday today. It actually is warmer than it was earlier in the week but a bit colder than yesterday @ -13C. Yesterday the wind was blowing and the roads were just terrible to be out. Friday morning it was -42C with the windchill and I witnessed a car travelling down Taylor drive dragging the electrical cord for the block heater behind it.
We can moan and groan ...
