Brrr, It is really Cold out!

It's a good thing it is so very dry... if there was any moisture in the air with this cold... my oh my would there be some accidents!
Last year at this time I think there was lots of snow on the ground...
I am reminded of an excellent book I read last year.. 1776... A great read and really makes you appreciate this country and what people went thru to secure it from Britain.
The cold they endured was numbing, many died in it, standing guard or simply at there post. We are so spoiled, running water, running HOT water. In door plumbing, flush toilets, and on and on...
Merry Christmas!
