It's really freakin' cold here, this morning it was -13 F when I got up at 7:30 AM. But, on a positive note, the sun is out and it is so bright and glorious. This is the kind of weather that drives the riff raff out of Minnesota. We haven't had it this cold in quite a few years. Yet, life goes on. Outdoor activities continue and those of us who don't participate, stay home and bundle up. Why do people stay here? The quality of life is above and beyond practically anywhere else in the country.
