Monday’s I worked for my uncle in his company called secure store. He rents and sells shipping containers to northern communities and delivers it to them via the ice roads during winter.
I had to paint and clean up the inside of the containers so they were ready to be sold. Also I learned how to drive a truck and a loader. This was such a great experience for me as I have never done this before. It was hard working in -30 degrees celcius because u couldn’t stay outside for more than about 5 minutes. I managed to get mild frostbite on my big toes in the first week because I could not keep them warm outside.
I also went ice fishing which was a great experience, we rented a cabin on the frozen lake and lit a fire insiders stay warm. We then had to dig small holes in the ice so we were able to fish. It was a very slow day as we didn’t catch many fish but I caught the largest of the day, a 22 inch walleye. On the way home from ice fishing I also saw a lynx which are extremely rare.
