Cold weather

How cold does it have to get when you say to heck with it I am not going out today. It is 2 degrees here and I am thinking about staying in. Just wondering if I am getting to be a sissy

We measure nice by wind or no wind. 20 in the sun with no wind is pretty nice. 45 degrees with a 20 knot wind and 80% humidity is miserable

I my opinion, being outside at any temp is better than 4 walls.
In any case; just depends on what your trying to accomplish.

Turning wrenches in cold weather is never, never fun.

The problem is, I have to much wood to burn. Nice on cold nights and calm winds.

Free wood, come on down to GA.

Fayetteville, GA. All the wood you want. We can even cut more trees down. Bring a big chainsaw.
