That's really nice weather.
Here in Edmonton, Alberta it is was a nice day until it started to snow...
The temp here was -16 C overnight and -7 C during the day. In Fahrenheit
that would be +3.2 F and +19 F respectively. We have it very very nice
for the last few weeks!!!
My cousins grow potatoes for a living. One of the biggest producers in
Alberta - and no they don't raise any cattle ;-) Nothing like those fresh
outta the ground potatoes when they are those little new potatoes. Mmmmm!
Always grew up with potatoes and I rarely having them anymore (developed an
moderate allergy) and besides, I have to watch my girlish figure ;-) I've
only grown potatoes once in my life...
