Last post cuz I GOT to get to bed!

Chilly to me is 50-60 degrees. Anything colder than that is COLD, if not FREEZING! Wood fires or no wood fires! Night night! *grin*

No... no.... no... COLD is back in the icebreaker days. There were days when they ordered the weatherdecks secured (meaning nobody was allowed to go outside). That was at about -60 or so. Beyond that if you go outside and breathe in... your lungs freeze. Now, THAT is cold.

Ah... the memories... takin' a baseball bat outside to break the ice off the ship to keep it from becoming top-heavy and tipping over. You just can't buy memories like that. :-)
