181110 Cold

Winter is here... It might warm again a time or two, but it is cold enough for me to pull out my old sleeping bag which was rated to ten degrees Fahrenheit, and my little heater that keeps the cabin temperatures above freezing. Right now, it is 54 F in here. Outside temps are still dropping, and the sun is rising. The latest reading was 43 F. Our high is expected to be 50 F. Now, has that passed already, or can we expect a little warming today? Isn't this fun? (My phone app says that yes, indeedy, our temperature has peaked for the day, and it will just get colder from here.)

Yes, northerners laugh at southerners for their lack of ability to handle the cold, but I dare anyone who laughs now to spend a triple digit day with me as we walk anywhere at all. Parts of me hurt, and I'm getting testy. Time to quit.
