Cold

It’s the coldest day of the year so far here in Chicago. When I rose today it was 3°F.

Longjohns Check.
Lined jeans Check.
Sorel boots Check.
Down parka Check.

Ready to walk the dogs.
I’ve got one more layer to add if need be.

  • It was certainly brisk when I stepped out at 6 am. Brrrrr!

    I even wore my Soviet MVD ushanka today.

  • Yeah, it’s terrible. Terrible! Why, here in NC I’ve endured a full week where it was too cold to sit on my porch for the hour it takes to fully savor a cigar. It’s not even going to break 50 til Thursday. Thank God our grueling winter will be over in, oh, maybe six weeks at most. My layers: t-shirt, leather jacket.
