OMG, you're colder than us this morning. I did bundle up and go out and brace -10 degrees but only for a short time (40 minutes!)to take photos. I was prevented from blogging by a 30 minute power outage, which is a little unnerving at these temps.
GREAT blog today - I can totally relate - and love the way you put it! Thanks
And Ptelea I like your shots of -10...it really does have a look to it.
