I have seen many winters in Canada. I have noticed that this year, it started snowing early in the first week of November. On that day, I had not even checked the weather forecast. I had to go to work on that day, but luckily it was in the afternoon, so I wanted to step outside when the snow stopped, but the snow didn't stop, so I stepped out around 4:30 pm. I saw it was still snowing outside. I didn’t find my gloves. I started removing snow from my car. It was cold outside, so my hands started to freeze. The road was not clean, yet I started rolling my car towards my yard, which was 15km from my home. It took me half an hour more to drive there. I saw that my truck was also covered with a thick layer of snow. I removed the snow as I opened the door to get in, and then I opened the hood to check oil levels. I found out everything was good. Then I started the truck and removed the remaining snow. I started my mini heater to warm the cabin of my truck. I put my belongings and started a tablet log book.
I know my truck was taking a long time to warm up because it was parked for the weekend, and the weather was also cold. It took one and a half hours to start my trip. On the road, it was still snowing, and luckily, I had a clean highway because it was Sunday. There wasn't too much traffic on the highway. After warming up, my truck and I felt good.
