cold !

I figure every time I hear of the hellish weather back East, my property value here in California jumps a few percent.
Today's highs in the 50's, working outside in the garden and catching up with some pruning. Tomorrow I'm going skiing. Resort is 50 miles from my place with 3' of base and a few inches if fresh snow on top. Friday I am taking my kayak on the ocean to catch something for Christmas dinner. Hopefully a nice ling. I'll set a few crab pots as well. I always have crab on New Year's Eve.

Tonight we bar-b-qued some burgers and sat out back to eat them and enjoy the sunset.

The politics are certainly messed up here in CA, but I can tolerate with this kind of winter weather!

It was 20* warmer in Calgary, Alberta today then Omaha Ne.
Thats not right.

Perfect weather for ice fishing, skiing and snowmobiling!

Got real cold here in St. Louis. Don't know if it was 6, 3, 2, whatever the official temp was, it was cold. Course the freezing sleet/rain didn't help as the temps plummeted. Time to fire up Google Maps, Google Earth andCampground Search sites and plan for the thaw.
What else can one do?

-2c here now. You guys enjoy your cold. It has been cold here for the last couple weeks.

-40.. been there,, Done that, more than once and I'm not talking Wind Chill in all of those cases either.. Sometimes that was the actual temp.

Propane don't work at -40
