If we didn’t have the cold nights there wouldn’t be the warm ones. Hopefully you had the equipment to keep you snug. I’ll double bag and throw a wool blanket over the whole thing if I have to. So nice to be toasty when it’s crazy cold out.

how did you get the dog to pee in the water bottle?

Brought back memories of being stuck in Alaska with 60 mph winds for 2 days and having to go outside to do your business.
