Its clear and cold here this morning. We're still butthole deep in snow. More expected by tomorrow. Yawn, its winter. Nothing new.
Yes Australians the bloody place is full of em, those not to be found drunk in London.
By Tuesday we are supposed to be 18F. That is too darn cold with the rain.
We send all our reprobates to London, revenge for the First (and subsequent) Fleets.
My wife and I got wood. The wood shed is about 40 feet from the house. One wheel barrel heats the house for 2 days. About 4 big armloads. It was a little above 0 F. The snow is like baking soda and squeaks under your feet. The wind blew about 40 mph. A gust blew snow off the shed and down into my coat around my neck. Not fun I thought. Then I thought about the folks that lived right here a few thousand years ago.
She "Honey I just had another baby. I'll go wash him off in the snow."
He "Is that number 6, or 7?"
She" That 8 but only 2 are alive now."
He " I'll take this stick with a sharp rock tied to it and go cut down a tree and drag it back for firewood."
She " Can you pick up some groceries on your way home?"
He "Sure if I see a critter and it doesn't eat me first. If I make it home I'll spend a relaxing afternoon
Making arrowheads and spearpoints.
We talk about surviving. And getting ready for shtf. Can you imagine hard was for them? I drove to town in a heated car on slick roads. Even in this tiny town I was amazed how much stuff was on the shelves in the grocery store and how little work it was for me to get them. When I got home I spent a relaxing afternoon reloading. Those people back then were tough! Can you imagine living without cars, electricity, cell phones.
food from the store, or birth control? I hope we don't find out, but we may. Solution, Prep More.
Thats just what I'm doing now; breaking ice in the water tanks. The only difference is our snow is half-way up to the cows back.An extra pic just for Arcticdude
