FROM THE EDITOR
Oh, November. That glorious time of year when delusions of holiday grandeur slowly give way to plain old delusions. Though we kid, it truly is a month when being prepared makes all the difference. And that’s what this issue’s all about—easing into winter, one mitten at time. To help, we’re offering our best tips for skating your way through the season. DIY advent calendars? We’ve got them. Winter tire info? Absolutely. A list of snow-removal services that are all free? Not a chance. But we hear that’s what kids are for…
Speaking of lofty concepts, ever wonder where the down in your winter coats comes from or why winter tires are mandatory is some provinces but not in others? We did. Like us, you might be a little surprised by the answers.
Tires and down, however, weren’t the only things on this month’s get-to-know list. As of this issue, T8N is officially a member of the Alberta Magazine Publishing Association. It’s a community we’re very proud to belong to, and we hope they’ll feel as welcome in ours.
So cheers to November and to a great season.
May your snow shovels be light and your hot toddies half-full.
