Here's the difference between living in the north ve the south
In the north when the temperature drops below a comfortable point I can put clothes on - There are clothes for all types of extreme cold
In the south when the temperature drops below a comfortable point I can take clothes off - There are only so many types of clothes that can be taken off - After that there always some people that will complain to law enforcement types when I max out at the high temperature comfortable attire

This was my drive home Sunday morning after pushing snow all night.
Supposed to start warming up today. -11c (12f). 3c (37f) by Friday. Will feel like a heat wave. T-shirt weather. Doug.

I love winter. The more snow the better. I try to get out cross country skiing at least 3 times a week. Below zero temps bring out the color in your cheeks:




My oldest Granddaughter out for a little ski with Grandpa. Once you are in the woods and out of the wind, the cold temps are not such a daunting factor to having a good time. This morning's temp was 15 below with a wind chill of about negative 22.

That snow globe is great. But I'm trying to get rid of things not add to my clutter.

It was minus-6 ℉ this morning in Parkersburg, WV. Got home to Michigan and at least it was up tp 10 ℉.


The side benefit was that there was no traffic on I-77. A real relief as I-95 was stop and go from Daytona Beach to I-26 in South Carolina.
