CHIMO! coming to you from 33 deg. 9' 13" N. lat.

Actually, I wans't complaining about the -21 , because it is about 10 degrees warmer than normal . It was sunny and the trees were heavily laden with snow and ice crystals. I should have taken my camera because very few people have witnessed that kind of beauty. It is one of the endearing and secret bonuses of the north. There was the odd issue, I lost my tail lights, but other than that is was one of the nicest trips I have taken out of here.
My wife is more of a heat Lizard , I like daytime highs of no more than 20c and low humidity. Of course , there is a happy medium with the cold.
