[QUOTE="Logar, post: 1511587, member: 31166"] LOL! Well north of that. And let them wave that flag. While they are nice people, most of them are quite spoiled when it comes to winter weather - completely unable to imagine certain types of winter - and you well know you have to be ready for the worst potential at all times. For the most part, they have never seen a colder than minus 40 winter, with drifting snow to the eaves of the shop and less than 5 - 6 hours of daylight at certain times of the year. Winters that have cattle eating nearly 24 hours a day simply to keep warm and survive. Thank God and Heaven for thick cedar and spruce bush that shelters cattle herds from wind and drifting snow. Pic was taken 14 Mar this year - me in my favorite snow remover - and it was no where near the last snow storm. We did not see grass until around 15 April (wife just corrected me - it was early May before we saw grass) and no one was on grass for a long time after that. According to her they went out in the first week of June. Cheers [url=https://postimg.cc/image/jzou0jl4t/][img]https://s22.postimg.cc/jzou0jl4t/18-03-14_Snow_3.jpg[/img][/url] [/QUOTE]
