It was cold in Nordegg on Sunday December 18th. Margarit and I decided that we would head back to the city, with plans to return with the girls over the holidays. Before leaving we took a drive and cut a ditch spruce for a Christmas Tree. We left it outside by the cottage and will bring it in and decorate it when we return over the holidays. This one passed inspection unlike the Charlie Brown tree that I cut last year. We hit the road at about 2:00 in the afternoon and made it back to the city by around 6:00.
The forecast for the next three or four days is calling for bitter cold temperatures. At Nordegg the night time lows are forecast to be near -40C. This is one of the reasons why we decided to head home earlier than originally planned. Back in Edmonton it will be slightly warmer... but not much. We will spend the week catching up some chores around home and preparing for Christmas.
On Monday I returned the rental truck that I had been using and picked up mine from the body shop. The hail damage is all repaired now. I really missed not having heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and a remote starter.
