a little random , but just curious. i was looking up how cold ohio can get (my area) and the record low was -39°F BUT that was in 1899 ... geez... thats COLD !!!! i have seen -14°F before but that was BEFORE i had the animals. so far ive seen 10°F as a low. and thats pretty dang cold as it is...

I am curious who in here is a second generation homesteader. We had gardens when I was younger and gearing up to start again next year. Also I logged with my father which I continued to do most of my life. Here is a blog about being a second generation guy.
