I knew what this was going to be about. Spotted the window immediately. I've done that but NOT that badly! Laughing

Pretty much -- it was quite cold inside and out. Just water -- it's refreshing!

We've just had a chinook roll through. Those pictures are awesome, but a little sad right now.

Ha! Last week I had been unloading tools from my van and got side tracked, forgot that the slider door was open. We got a foot of snow that night. Thankfully it wasn't a windy snow storm. Got a foot right by the door opening but tapered to nothing halfway into the van.
