Frost and Hardship.
We are going to have frost,
1. Chimneys smoke.
2. Smoke curls to the ground.
3. Starts blinkle.
We are going to have hardship,
1. When the Northern lights are seen.
We are going to have a storm,
1. When the sky looks red.

Father age 46.
- We are going to have hardship;
When blue blazes are seen in the fire
