We had fog today, dreary and unusual conditions. It just made everything feel colder. So, I plunked down with my heating pad and watched “Extreme Ice Machines” on the science channel. What a crazy informative show!
Of course I had no idea how the northern countries managed their snowfalls. Snow can be on the ground in whatever place we were watching for eleven months of the year. They have major machines for everything from the airports, ski hills, roads, etc… It did nothing to warm me but was intriguing. So, I laid a fire, turned on plenty of lights, and lit a bunch of half-used candles. I am now warm and happy, watching football and continuing to welcome the new year.
