Seems like the whole state is in the deep freeze this morning.
Where are you and how cold is it this morning? I've got -26 and a roaring fire going inside. Winter Park/Fraser area.

Sunny here now too and up to -19. I'll be working on the interior of a log McMansion this morning, about to go start the Jeepy. I hope they have the heat at a reasonable temp there today. I'll be the only one there.

lol... naw, nothing creepy. There are log "cabins" (1500sf or smaller), log "homes"(maybe up to 5000sf), and huge log "mansions" (7000sf++). I just refer to the huge ones as "McMansions", not sure why.

Just more proof that these are "the good old days"...vs when the gold rush prospectors and pioneers were alive. Can you even imagine what those folks faced on a day-to-day basis?

Wow! It's like a warm spell here right now.
 Temp was 20 at 3:30 this morning. Hope everyone else is getting a bit of this weather.
