“-20? Must have a good wood stove.
At this point, I might put up with cold weather just to get even further away from Washington, D.C.”
I can’t even imagine living near Washington, DC. Went Outside last spring to W. Virginia and the crowds, and traffic, had me squirmin’ like a lynx in a trap. Had a great time, nice folks there, but was sure happy to get back home to the cabin and away from the noise.
-20 isn’t a big deal. It’s when it hits below -50 that things get tougher. All we have in the cabin is a small barrel woodstove but we insulated the cabin very well and don’t have any plumbing to worry about. Not that plumbing would be a big deal...there are ways to keep it from freezing up.
Well, I’m down in the South where at least sanity can still be found among the people. Liberals are not too popular here either, though they are trying to make inroads.
People are more independent-minded here, probably like Alaskans.
But it still wouldn’t hurt to be several thousand more miles away from D.C.
