I know! Heaters, hot water bags, hot air blowers and our traditional 'Angithi', we use them all in the winters. Can't imagine how bad it would have been if they were not invented.

Harsha,I lived in Chicago for 20 yrs,before moving to SF. Bone chilling winters with wind chill!! Would have never survived without heaters!
Love to hear about the Himalayas!!

We live very much in Western Himalayas, Chamba district spreads itself in Pir Panjal and Dhauladhar Ranges of the Himalayas. But luckily Chamba valley (district HQ) is on the foothills and snow melts in not more than 10 days. But cold is cold!

That must have been horrible! Best of luck with this year's winter! Are you close enough to the Himalayas that your winters are much colder?

It's cold here already. Last year we had a 5 days long power cut after the unexpectedly heavy snow fall. Never felt the chilling winter as that. Let's see what's coming this year.

Thanks Harsha! Believe me, I am too! I have a feeling it will be much more violent than last year. We in Northeastern North America got out easy!

Lovely picture there! I got goose pumps thinking of the winter that's coming. :)

Thanks, John!

Thanks Brandon, but they were growing from a tree. Grapes grow on vines, right?
