My Mrs is from a little town in the south central part of the state of North Dakota (almost to the SD border). Gets very cold there also. Was visiting one 5 day break back in 1973 and the high was below zero F the whole time I was there. Had to keep the car tank heater plugged in all the time out by the well house. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr! Once, they had to tunnel through the snow to the barn to feed the stock, the picture of that snow covering the 2 story house and the large barn, was mind blowing. Taking that picture, they actually dug out of the second story window to go outside to check around the farm. This city boy got a big education learning hardships from those farmers in ND, that's for sure!
