Revitalization.
For 1.5 months while there were frosts I read and studied many tips on how to revive a diesel engine in frosts. I bought it with chemistry - defroster, antigel in a flash. So ...

Event: good company, interesting activity, fresh air, barbecue, sauna after. What else is needed for happiness :) I don't know.
