It is a good thing that when the thermometer dips below -30C, that there is typically no wind. Not the smoke from the wood cookstove is wafting straight up - Bob is in there warming things up, note that I am NOT. This morning I had flash frozen fingers while watering the horses....
Harley the Wonder Dog even tried to piddle on the porch columns in preference to going for our planned walk.... this was averted but he shows the displeasure in his face. By the time we finished our chores and came in to warm up, he already had frosted frozen eyelashes (as I did too!).
