Bill, you see, lives in a part of Canada called "Saskatchewan". It gets ~real~ cold there. Cold winds whipping across the prairies and all.
I live in Toronto. It doesn't get that cold here. Even so, the average high here for this time of year is about -5. That's the high. Mind you, last winter we had a cold spell that lasted the better part of a month, with wind chills most mornings between -30C and -40C. Try riding a bike in that! <g>
We're in the middle of an exceptional mild spell for winter. It's been pretty mild here for the better part of a week. +8C is like a heat wave. Really. In fact, I would say something about G. W., but it would start another long nasty thread, so I won't.
But, what you really want to know is: Did frank get any good pictures on his walk? Sadly, only took a few frames, and I fear it's nothing inspiring. Some days you see stuff, some you don't.
cheers, frank

Bill said:"Right now, we are dreaming of the warmth of 8�C. Daytime highs here are around -20�C, night time lows are probably around -30�C"
Seriously, how do you drag yourself out of bed in weather like that?!!? How
do you get your fingers to work?!!?
Give me hot sun, and sweat any day...
