There are dogs all over here in Fort Albany, so no matter what you do there is always a dog there to watch.<BR/>As for snotcicles...they become just another part of life in the North. Its when you go indoors and they melt...thats the gross part!<BR/><BR/>At the moment we have extreme wind chill warnings (-50ish) but the next time we are going to cook out I will be well prepared. I have seen those small dead twigs on the spruce trees. Using them in a bundle is such a great idea. I have also been using a lighter which, as you mentioned, can be unreliable.<BR/>Other videos I have seen are usually a person starting a cooking fire in their backyard. The environment you were working in looks very similar to Fort Albany. This was certainly very helpful. Well done!<BR/>During this latest cold snap, I have been enjoying the thrill of throwing a cup of warm water in the air and watching it vapourize. Perhaps I will work on videotaping that. The folks back home would be amazed! hehehe<BR/>~HollyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21596698.post-44925042719949021812009-01-13T17:32:00.000-08:002009-01-13T17:32:00.000-08:00I love it!I love it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21596698.post-57703456048692359312009-01-13T08:01:00.000-08:002009-01-13T08:01:00.000-08:00Oh!
