November is a month you are meant to be hibernating and just hydrating in Scandinavia. It is the worst month of the year.

I guess interesting is a word for it.

By the way, those cold years in the 70s were great for making snow forts and having snowball fights during elementary school recess.

Like you have snow in Vancouver, pfft.   


I remember, sometime in the 80s, there were a series of snow storm, there ice storm, I think the school were I was at the time closed for nearly two weeks.  The less fun part as I remember was that we were living on a trailer on a construction site, so with no electricity, during the week, we had to move to one of my dad's employee's home to sleep there as we had no way of heating our trailer.

I also remember that back home, where I live now, we could make some big snow forts too.  And there was a huge hole in the ground, because just before my dad bought the land next to the house, the owner had dug it to build what would be his house.  So dad, not wanting a new neighbour right behind him bought the terrain and the construction materials.   I had a new place to glide for a couple of winters until we settled permanently here.    Fun times.
