No offense but this cold we are getting from the Great White North just plain sucks.

How about some of you all come down here and get this Alberta Clipper weather system and put his ass back in the corral and don't forget to close the gate this time.

A Colorado low started the storm that sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald.

-33 today up here, that's like -27F for you southern folks.
The diesel had a bit of a time starting this morning, and I had to pull the ear flaps down - any colder and I'll have to put on a heavy coat!!

That is just too much of a good thing.

I can remember it dropping to -26F here once back in the late 1970's - early 1980's. It was BRUTAL.

I have been out working in -10 to -15F a few times and I really don't like it much

Winnipeg was colder than Mars llast week apparently, and we have also warmed up in the last few days- it hit the -40's for a few days.
Louie the German Short hair pointer might love the hot weather , but you can have your 95 degree stuff as far as Ii am concerned - unless maybe you send some quail up with it!!

One thing about Canada is, it gets all kinds of weather.
Just in varying amounts.

Quail are as scarce as honest politicians around here. We have a few ruffed grouse in spots. Plenty of wild turkeys and a decent goose and duck population.


We got an abundance of big skeeters if you need some extras.

The skeeters are so big down here in the South they can stand flat footed and fornicate with a full grown wild turkey. shocked

It's been so cold here in SE Alberta, I dragged out my old copy of the Rodeo Song....It's 40 below and I don't give a f...got a heater in the truck and I'm off to the rodeo!
IIRC it was written/preformed by a band from this area (Medicine Hat).
Enjoy the weather folks, it'll soon be summer!
And now, back to my state of hibernation.LOL

Dropped back to minus 40 here, so cool I had to go back to long pants. Thought spring was coming when it hit minus 29 and the sun was shining!
