COLD!

I just went out for a short walk with the dogs, barely even 10 minutes. Just up to the turn-around/mailboxes, and a bit beyond, and then back. My ears almost froze off (need to get a hat). It's currently -1 degrees F (-18C). I guess that might explain the numb feeling in my ears.

The neighbor's and I sat in their hot tub last night, too. I went over, after they invited me over during the day, and when I arrived mentioned that it was 3 degrees out (at least at our house it was). Bob looked and their thermometer showed 1F! So I joked that we should wait until the temp goes negative. So we did :) We sat around drinking beer until I noticed the thermometer showing -0.3 degrees, and out we went.

Not the brightest idea we ever had, but it was VERY refreshing trying to come back in from the hottub afterwards.

Now that I think about it, maybe THAT's where my ears froze off :) The rest of my body was, of course, nice and warm in the 100F water.

Winter is apparently here...
