The fact that Yakutsk is responsible for a fifth of the world’s production of diamonds might explain why 270K people live there.

“”””-15F near Spirit Lake this morning. Wind had a definite edge to it when I went out to do the chores. Horses all had frost in their whiskers. Wood stove did a great job of keeping us warm.””””

I want to be where you are... well I don’t mean with you like that, I mean on the farm tending to the horses and the wood stove... like that. My own place, you know... with my wife... and not with that temperature either, more like a minimum of 20degrees.

Oh how I sit and dream about that while I’m in this cubicle box...

On the plus side, there’s probably zero panhandling in Yakutsk.
