It was windy and it got away from us. Had to call the fire dept. Burned over 2 plus acres and cleared some brush. So tonight we are both wore out. The good part is the trees we planted yesterday still had green leaves. We have a neighbor that did that last year. Fortunately, there's a road between here and their and it didn't jump it. Fire Department got there before it burned down the adjacent expensive house that just took 9 months to build.

Maybe someone with unheated shop will chime in. There is something called the "chalk temperature" of PVA glues. When the glue, wood, and/or environment is below the chalk temperature, the uncured glue turns white and loses a lot of its adhesive strength. For most common glues, this is about 50-55 degrees.
