The year I left Alberta the temperature hovered around -40C/F for weeks in December and in January. I remember those cold nights on the farm in rural Alberta with a woodstove to keep the chill away when the power went off.<br /><br />Having a roof and food is certainly an excellent state of gratitude whether it's cold outside or not. Now, if only I can get my landlord to fix the oven before the holidays arrive.Barbara Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00610140328527165017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892083748555571767.post-4038243283857553142009-12-14T17:43:01.452-07:002009-12-14T17:43:01.452-07:00Brrrr! -40C is terribly cold.

...Very nice roof...house underneath is nice too ;)<br /><br />It is good to be reminded that roofs and electricity and gas or wood stoves are luxuries that not everyone can afford.
