Good day all!!!
New guy here from the icy Canadian North in Yellowknife North West Territories. :D
Just getting into this new hobby and have been lurking here for a while.
I'm waiting on my equipment to show up (should be here in the next few days hopefully).
Got 50L of molasses wash patiently waiting on it's arrival. :handgestures-thumbupleft:
FYI: For y'all in warmer climates it's currently -43C with -52C wind chills up here!!! :scared-eek:
A fella needs good rum to keep warm. ;-)
Cheers
Dave

Thanks guys!!! Rub it in why don't cha!!!!! :teasing-tease: :teasing-tease: :teasing-tease: :teasing-tease:
I'm off to the sun and warmth of Florida for 6 weeks @ the end of February which will help make up for freezing me nuts off all winter. :))
Not just going for the sun though. There are some stops along the way that need to be made for supplies. Our selection here North of 60* is terrible. Need to pick up a few 50kg pails of molasses and some big ass bags of sugar as well as some charred oak barrels fer aging me rum. :D

Rum was used as currency here in the early days :D
Welcome to the forum and this is one reason we joke about weather

My buddy is in NZ chasin' trout for the next month or so.
He looks like he's having a fine time down under. ;-)
No snow in his pics though. :?
