It is, but think "C" for Canada. -4F is cold too, but doesn't sound nearly as extreme.

i can quickly see what i need, without having to drudge-through the entire region’s/state’s forecast. our weather in the north part of the county is often quite different than the southern end - that’s just 1 county!

I'm sitting in our bedroom with my feet wrapped in a blanket, trying to work. The furnace has run pretty well nonstop since this morning, and it still hasn't quite gotten to room temperature.

We're babysitting and housesitting for our son and his wife. Rick's mother in law appears to be in her very last days of life and the whole family is back there. We are keeping their children here. Scheduling is a bit uncertain at this point.

Is that minus F or C? -20° C is warm for us here this time of year, now if you want to talk -20°F...

Celsius. A little below 0° F. Like I said, we get colder than that in Alberta. But our cold is usually a dry cold that doesn't feel as cold. This was COLD.

Ken is set to return tomorrow, March 6, 2018! We're all geared up for his return! He's going to hole up with his wife and family for the first few days.

We plan a relatively low-key welcome home service for him on Sunday, March 11,
at Pilgrim Fellowship in Stuarts Draft, with fellowship lunch following.
You are welcome to attend.

blessings!
