Gonna be a cold week here in Chicago
-
We went to the zoo today. It was a bit weird driving for about a half hour when it was -19 out (felt like -29). The exhaust from cars simply didn't...evaporate much. Each car on the road had a good "trail" of what my kids would call "smoke!" behind each. Almost like the vehicles were emitting their own heat signature the way a warm human body does when it goes out into the cold for the first few minutes.
They canceled school tomorrow, which is an extreme rarity in these parts.

Brrr!
It is so true that cold is relative. If it gets down to the 60's in Thailand, people get out their winter jackets!

No snow but plenty cold…

Snow yesterday, 7 degrees on the morning drive today. They still drove like Massholes.

Proud of the little guy, today he had to have walked 2-3 miles in the 10-15 degree temps. Of course, it was broken up every half mile with a stop at the Lego store, then FAO Schwarz, then the M&M’s store, then Hershey’s…

With a stop for M&M’s at Saks, then Macy’s, then Anthropologie…
Dad did get to stop at Sean’s Irish Pub for lunch…

Temperature is -1 F right now. Tuesday being pizza night for us (It's BOGO Tuesday), I went downstairs to place my order. I walked down the stairs and out. 10 feet to the take-out counter of the restaurant. I was wearing a sweater.
Other people waiting for pizza looked at me like I was crazy for being so lightly-dressed, unaware that I live, literally, upstairs. I was outdoors for about 10 seconds.
But yeah, it's colder than a kiss from my first wife (RIP).
