We put up our outside Christmas tree yesterday as well, but it was 45° F here. I actually find that comfortable but I didn't take part this year, wasn't feeling good. Your yard is beautiful, and the snow and winter sky just set it off. This is my favorite time of the year.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Tips on how to make your scans look like the card does in hand (No more washed out, fuzzy scans!):

Spaz, that's -19C. It's probably a couple of degrees below zero farenheit. Still very cold, but not arctic.............yet. It'll probably be -20F soon there.

Ranfan, I didn't see a roof in that picture! Are you standing on an igloo?

Seriously though, it's good to know you have power and indoor plumbing. I wouldn't want to try to get through a winter here in NC without both and we get nowhere near as cold as you do up there.

I can't imagine how horrible a trip to an outhouse would be in -19 windchill. That would just be a grave!

I know. -19C is just below 0F. Here in NC, it is very rare to even get to a windchill of 5F. So zero is really cold to me!

Really cool! I like the reindeer near most of the trees. The whole set-up is very nice.

Try moving from NC to Michigan in the dead of winter. Not quite as cold as Ranford has it, but it was still brutal.
