I finally broke down and changed into a L.L.Bean fleece lined flannel shirt this afternoon.

It is time. I broke out my Colman fleece-lined pullover too.

I have heard that there are some who claim to like winter. I think they are just making the best of a horrible situation. [Smile]

I've been outside working for the last 10 days now. I absolutely positively hate winter. The cold just goes right through my bones!

Thank goodness for global warming otherwise it would be in the teens right now!

i don't mind the cold as much as the ice and snow. I suffered a mild heart condition last winter trying to chisel a 5 inch ridge of ice off my driveway.

i guess in a way it was a blessing. After the urging of my wife and my doctor, I agreed to several tests, EKG, heart stress, Echo test (whatever that was), etc. I ended up having a heart catheterization procedure done. They found a 65% blockage in one of my arteries. A stint was put in and that took care of it, although I do have to take blood thinner medicine for the next year to prevent blood clots and restrict any strenuous activity probably from now on.

I don't know what I'll do this winter if we get a big snowfall dumped on us. I do have a snow blower but it does no good for ice.

I golfed today after work. Temperature was around 50 degrees, and with the sun shining it was actually pretty pleasant. I'm with Jarcat - don't mind the cold as much as I hate the ice and snow. With Under Armour cold gear I can be outside with the temp in the 30's and it's really not that bad.

We moved to Florida 17 years ago from Louisville and it was the best move we ever made,

Wife and I are talking about retiring in about 26 months and we are already talking about a retirement place down south!
