Seriously? It was cold today? I went to work at 8:30, left at 4:30, drove to gym, left there at 6:45... didn't really notice.

It was cold as hell until at least noon. I had the pleasure of helping my grandma move into a raisin farm this morning. F'n freezing outside.

Opening a sawmill for Canfor. They drew him out of retirement with the big bucks I think.

The locale is gravy. Wish we could go for a visit. He'll be there about 18 mos.

Oooh that must be exciting for him. Old growth logging and hydroelectricity projects are very contentious issues in Tasmania, which has the highest proportion of Greens of any parliament in the world.

Yeah, I haven't had the chance to talk to him about that. I'm sure he's well aware of that as he is not someone who rushes into things without the proper research. He has said the people are exceptional so there must not be any people picketing his residence!

I'm pretty darn sure it hit -50 here last night with the windchill.

It 'did' hurt to breath....and my whole face was numb after 5 min outside.
