Mhmm..yep I went there. As soon as Halloween hits, we usually get our first snowfall here in my province. I remember trick or treating when I was a kid going as a princess and wearing pants under my costume, jacket and mitts. Kind of took away from the princess image lol. Anyways do you have any things you like to do each year? Skiing, snowboarding, crafts, snowmobiling, travelling, counting the days until Spring, going over old receipts and doing a audit?

We did the same thing with the costumes. I always buy or make my kids costumes big enough to put a coat under. I like to sled ride and play in the snow. I also like to drink hot chocolate. I've never done an audit.

Are those your boots? I once saw a couple in matching fur coats. I had to not look so I wouldn't laugh.

Nope, sorry, it went along with my post about white winter coats on women. Combine that with the black boots and it will always catch my eye.

I think God gets a kick out of making the global warming crowd look silly!

Come on, it wouldn't take long to find open water if you got sucked under. That pic was taken in De Beque Canyon and once the Colorado River gets out of the canyon it's rarely covered in ice.

Na na na na na na na na, I have summer here:cool: Nothing beats summer at durban. Unfortunately I'm inland so no sea for me wahhhhhh.

Anyone want to trade summer for winter? I accept cash, credit, private planes and just about anything.

Doesn't your beard get hot in the summer? I would think that you would enjoy the coolness of winter.

Yesterday was beautiful in Indiana. I left my house comfortably dressed and was freezing by the time I got home last night. I put my warmest jammies on, woke up this morning burning up and turned on my ceiling fan. I don't know whether it's living in Indiana or being a 40 year old woman that's the problem, but it makes me crazy! :)

I used to live in Havre, Montana which during the winter, is usually the coldest place in the continental US, tied with Cut Bank, Montana. One winter, it got down to -60 degrees, -100 degrees with the wind chill. Everybody has freeze plug heaters for their engine blocks, but that wasn't the problem. All the plastic on our vehicles became so brittle that you only had to barely touch it and it would break. I barely touched the lining in the truck ceiling and it split in two. One day, we had a record 100 degree change in temperature for our city. I think Loma, Montana still has the national record.

The beautiful thing though was that since any moisture in the air would flash freeze, the air would always be glittering with tiny crystals.

I grew up in Buffalo. I've been asked if I am Canadian a few times here in the land south of the Mason-Dixon.

It's probably true. I have memories of walking a mile to school with my nose hairs frozen. Crashing my sled into a few too many trees. Running through the woods with snowshoes on. Watching my house get buried in snow from the inside. Being woken up at 6am to shovel the driveway.

Good times. Okay, well, some of them were.

I can't even begin to imagine that kind of cold. The coldest it's ever been here since I've been around is 16 degrees F. A 100 degree change in temp in a day? What the...?? Crazy!
