Almost done here. -4 degrees this morning, may have to start again. We shall see.

[sumdumguy]

Daley, where do you live at -4?

[SASKFARMER3]

Yea that's a great question as it's nice out here since 4:30 and no frost plus 8.2.

[dalek]

Ontario. Most of the province had some degree of frost this morning. Got a couple of friends nearby that hit -7 to -8. Could have been an expensive night.

Must be all that hot air you spout SF3 that keeps the night time cooling away. Last 48 hours here - high 23C, low -2.3C, high 23.8C, low -1.1C. Nobody making a big fuss about frost - guess we are used to it in Albertastan.

Finished for now Malle unless we have to reseed. Dry weather here helped the cause but could use a shower to keep the dust down.
U farm some of that land down under that u can drive for miles then turn around and be back in time for lunch?

Think more likely thousand acres.
Perhaps Mallee can explain their land survey system.

[Hopalong]

Western Canada survey system changes at second meridian in eastern Sask.
East and most of Manitoba has 99 foot road allowances every mile and both north south and east west.
West of second meridian is 66 foot road allowances separated two miles north south and one mile east west.
Many untraveled road allowances are farmed across.
Not sure which was used in most of western US where basic square mile system was used.
