ND Mike Dr_Pain I know ther are plenty of people on here from the real cold country. In 32 years of working my first LE career, my coldest was -25 in January of 94, with a wind chill of about -50. I was as SWAT supervisor and told the wife before going to bed, we will probably have a SWAT call out tonight. Unfortunately, I was right and got a call about midnight. It was the coldest I can ever remember being in my life. Being in a stationary position all night was insane when I look back at it. We also found out that our launched gas rounds would not work in those temperatures. Our grenadier was launching rounds from about 30 feet away from the suspects house and trying to put them into a second story window. They never even made it to the house, let alone through the window. When we called the manufacturer and asked if it was a bad lot of ammo, they said " well we have never tested them in those temperatures before", which is ironic considering they were headquartered in a state near North Dakota. Im glad we only had to operate in those temps occasionally. Hats off to doing it on a regular basis. Stay safe this winter.
GWG8541 Had to pull a well one time in very cold weather, I walked the pipe so the water would run back, had to hold it above my head. When we had it out I needed to have help getting out of my Carhartt jacket, it would stand up in the back of the truck, but at least I was moving.

GWG8541 It was, after we got the well pulled I went to town and showered and changed clothes and got a different coat and was back out. Had to get the water back up it was a cattle ranch and they needed their water back on.

GWG8541 just canned the last of the beets and some more spicy V8. My tomatoes are still going strong but cooler weather is supposed to be on the way.

cdavis that looks beautiful. Those last few batches are the most rewarding. You know you have run it to the end and all the hard work has paid off.

. Let me know when it warms up.I have a heated shop. Plus in a couple months, 20 degrees will seem warm, good chance we will be 20 below. Now that I think about it, maybe I will throw it in the truck and head your way.

Dr_Pain thats just my version of pepper vinegar. I always like the Texas Pete stuff I saw in some restaurants, so I bought a bottle, filled it with vinegar, salt and a little cane sugar. The nice thing is you can keep adding vinegar and the peppers will keep a year easily. I had to find a cool bottle so the wife would let me keep it out on the counter. She’s a little OCD about her counter tops.

cdavis My vines are about done, Just trying to squeeze out the goodie as much as I can to vine ripen. Frost is just days to a week away I’m sure. I’ll pick what is left that are changing the green shades and finish them off inside on a tray in the West window. Paper bags never worked for me.

@dennyo I have good luck finishing them in cardboard boxes in my shop. I just keep the lid closed and check them once or twice a week.
