It's so true. It was a warm day today at 37. Drove home with the sunroof open.

I think if it got up to 37 here, we'd be grilling steaks in the front yard.

Wow! You New Englanders are a hardy bunch. This SoCal boy stands in awe and shock. I really really wish I could be so manly - guess I'll have to settle for this instead...

Lol. North Arkansas has surprising seasons, especially for us ourselves. It can get up to 110(or more, though not normal) and people complain it's hot. Meh. Or it can get ten below(or less) and people complain it's cold. Meh. I wear windpants and a t-shirt all year long, no jackets no goves. Perhaps if people wouldn't be so afraid of the weather and try to stay at their temperature, they wouldn't have to?
