    As a Canadian who lives in an area where winter is a reality and not just a temporary experience, I kinda enjoy watching the lower mainland and island descend into chaos when a snowstorm rolls in 😅 I lived through one good storm on the island a decade ago and Victoria pretty well shut down for 2-3 days until melt and rain took the snow away.

    Top recommendation for warmer hands; get some wrist warmers to help bridge the transition between jacket/long sleeve and gloves. Really helps to keep the blood in the small arteries warm on the way to the hands. You can buy them or easily make them out of a pair of socks. Just snip off the toe end and even create a thumb hole to keep everything in place and super layered. Mahalo my duuudes!

    Winter video suggestion: you guys should build a jump out of a pile of snow( usually from a snowplow) I’ve done this a few times this winter and it’s a lot of fun. Just make sure you pack it in extremely well, cause it doesn’t pack in or hold weight as well as dirt.
