Compared to Wisconsin, where we used to live for most of our life, not very cold. Lots of rain and very little snow.
However, we’re having sticker shock over our first propane heating bill (about $200 for 15 days and on course for double that for the next bill). On the other hand, we are heating about 1,500 square feet as opposed to a 400 square foot RV.

TRASHED A NEW WALL OVEN
Actually, the shippers damaged the oven, not us. The top control panel should be straight up, not bent back, and not shattered either. We got our money refunded. Next stop, Lowes.
