TeeHeee; Try 30 below up Lake Superior way. We will have to get you a Canada Goose jacket!. Plus mukalucks. Really warm sweaters for the pups. Dressing for winter is a serious business up there. Balaclavas, really really warm mittens, silk longjohns, etc.
Good Lord...I will look like the Michelin Tire Man!!!
All homes will have an extra generator up there - for when the power goes out. Best to get a wood burning furnace too.
I have the generator for hurricanes! I can bring that!!!
We will need a four wheel drive car, plus a Skidoo.
Have the 4 wheel drive vehicle...have no clue what a Skidoo even is! Also everyone stocks up on provisions before the snow flies
. But you will see awesome Northern Lights, and there is Cell service and internet...lol lol Also someone to plow the driveway too.
Sounds absolutely awsome!!!
Now nobody mows 100 acres. You mow about 5 or so. The extra land can be training ground for the Blackies!.
Great!! That will work!!! Fence in about an acre of land. I want an indoor/outdoor doggy pool. Plus an indoor training arena. Probably need to be propane heated.
We are going to have to upgrade the modest home you mentioned in the first email!!
The Blackies will keep the coyotes away, and btw hunting rifles, shot guns are allowed up in the Great White NOrth. Them things are for the Bears! And I don't want to lose any Blackies to the Bear population. Wolves they take on, but then again I wouldn't go out of my way to test that theory.
I have the shotguns and hunting rifles covered!!!
Now spring/fall, summer that land shines just so. Plenty of hiking trails, spectacular vistas every kilometer or so along the highway.
You'd want a garden for veges n such. They don't do a whole lot of fresh produce up there.
UH_OH....we are in trouble here....unless YOU do crops!
I've lived up in the North for a time; I did love it so. There are old fashioned kinds of things to do, quilting bees, knitting circles, baking, cooking, n freezing things. Having a hobby for the dark and cold days of winter is a godsend. It is also why you need an indoor training arena that is heated. So the pups can get good exercise during the hellish cold days.
I hand sew quilts....I do minimal crochet.....baking and cooking are my majors, canning and preserving are dooable for me....I love Scrabble and poker....AND BLACKJACK!!! And I will gamble and place a bet on ANYTHING that moves! I AM GETTING EXCITED!!!
Of course there is land much nearer than Lake Superior; but there is winter here, no doubt about it.
